Insomniac Games has announced that their CEO for thirty years, Ted Price, will be officially retiring. Three studio co-heads will take his place: Ryan Schneider, Jen Huang, and Chad Dezern. Ted Price stated the following about his retirement:
“Despite a challenging 2024, Insomniacs stayed fully focused on building games for our fans. As a result of the team’s persistence and collaboration, we’re in one of the strongest positions we’ve experienced in years, with each game in development looking beautiful and playing fantastic.
Therefore, last week, I felt comfortable announcing to the Insomniac team that after having been incredibly fortunate to enjoy such a fulfilling career in games, I’ll be retiring from the industry at the end of March. Today, I’m sharing this news more broadly. I actually made this decision last year. For me, after over 30 years of leading Insomniac, I felt it was simply time to step aside and let others pave the way for our team.
During the past year, I had the opportunity to work with the senior leadership team at Insomniac to create a succession plan that I know will provide the continuity, stability and strong leadership necessary to deliver more of what our fans cherish over the next several decades. So also today, I’m extremely happy to announce that Chad Dezern, Ryan Schneider and Jen Huang will become Insomniac Games’ new Co-Studio Heads.”
Dezern, Schneider, and Huang have been part of Insomniac for years, so they are uniquely equipped to lead Insomniac into the future. The company’s next game will be Marvel’s Wolverine. Insomniac will likely reveal more about the game in the coming months.
