Troy Leavitt has left developer Avalanche Software and quit the project, following controversy around his YouTube channel.
Leavitt became the centre of controversy two weeks ago, when journalist Liam Robertson pointed out that thedesigner senior producer (thx
GreenAlien
for the correction) had previously uploaded a number of videos in the past that, among other subjects, expressed support for the Gamergate movement and downplayed high-profile cases of sexual harassment.
Leavitt has now explained on Twitter that he has left Avalanche Software, adding that he has "nothing but good things to say about the game, the dev team, and WB Games."
In a follow-up, Leavitt says that he felt "absolutely secure" in his position at Avalanche, but made the choice to resign.
Neither Avalanche Software, nor WB Games, have commented on Leavitt's departure at time of writing. IGN has contacted both for comment.
