Bobby Kotick has reportedly said he would consider resigning from his role as CEO of Activision Blizzard if he cannot fix the many issues within the company's culture quickly.
That's according to sources speaking to the
Wall Street Journal, who told the publication that Kotick held a meeting with the Call of Duty publisher's top executives on Friday to address the latest problems they face.
While he did not say he would definitely step down, he said it was a possibility if the company's issues with abuse and misconduct were not fixed "with speed."
During the meeting, execs reportedly told Kotick that some staff would not be satisfied until his resigned.
Kotick said apologised for how he has handled the situation and added he was ashamed of some of the incidents that have happened during his 30-year tenure as CEO.
