David Reeves will step down from his position as COO of Capcom Europe at the end of January 2013, MCV UK reported. He will resume the advisory role he held at Capcom prior to becoming COO of the company in March 2010.
"Over the past three years I have been very fortunate to be able to manage Capcom at an operational level in Europe but I want now to take up several new global consulting opportunities in non-competing industries, which, when combined with my existing and extensive charity commitments, means I cannot commit full time to my existing role at Capcom Europe," Reeves said.
Reeves was President and CEO of Sony Computer Entertainment Europe for 14 years before stepping down in April 2009, at which point he predicted the PS3 would be dominant in three to five years.
