The driving force was pronounced useless on the scene, and the passenger later died in a hospital, although there is no affirmation on which of the 2 was Zampella.
Zampella based Respawn Leisure in 2010 with Jason West, which has since launched video games like Titanfall and Titanfall 2, Apex Legends, and the Star Wars Jedi collection. Earlier than that, Zampella was a lead at Name of Responsibility: Fashionable Warfare maker Infinity Ward. EA acquired Respawn in 2017, and Zampella has been its CEO since. In 2021, Zampella turned the Head of Battlefield for EA amidst wider franchise modifications that included the creation of a Battlefield universe. Zampella, alongside Battlefield Studios, helped make Battlefield 6 an inarguable success for the collection, which wasn’t in the very best place following 2022’s Battlefield 2042.
