Starbreeze CEO (Payday) has been removed from leadership

[John Elden Ring]

Payday 3 developer Starbreeze is searching for a new CEO following the removal of Tobias Sjögren.

In a notice to investors, the Stockholm-headquartered developer said that it “needs a different leadership,” following a difficult period of instability in the wake of Payday 3’s launch.

Juergen Goeldner has been appointed as interim CEO. Goeldner joined the board of Starbreeze in 2023.

“The company has a clear strategy centered around creating attractive games on our own and licensed IPs,” said Starbreeze chairman Torgny Hellström in a statement. “The board’s consolidated assessment is that the execution of strategy needs a different leadership.

“Juergen Goeldner has been part of the board since 2023 and, with over 40 years of industry experience, is a strong interim solution.”

Don't envy whoever will be taking their place.
Starbreeze has been struggling for years and not producing anything that made money past PayDay 2 that released all the way back in 2013.
