Pete Hines retires from Bethesda after 24 years

His next gig will be detailed soon.

Bethesda’s Pete Hines will retire after 24 years with the company, he’s recently announced.

“After 24 years, I have decided my time at Bethesda Softworks has come to an end,” Hines wrote in a statement.

“I am retiring and will begin an exciting new chapter of my life exploring interests and passions, donating my time where I can, and taking more time to enjoy life,” he continued. “This was not a decision I came to easily or quickly, but after an amazing career, culminating in the incredible launch of Starfield, it feels like the time is right.”

Bethesda has thanked Hines for his service.

“Pete’s public presence was only a small part of his role at Bethesda, although the way he represented us carried over into the values he nurtured here: authenticity, integrity and passion,” the company said in a statement. “His contributions have been integral in building Bethesda and its family of studios into the world-class organization that it is today. His vision helped push us forward, and his hard work inspired us.”

We’ll let you know what Hines is up to next when announced.
