Pete Hines, Bethesda Softworks head of publishing, has announced that hes 
stepping down from his role to retire, after 24 years at the company. 

In a statement posted to Twitter today (October 16), Hines noted that this 
wasnt an easy decision for him to make, but it feels like the time is right. 

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

Continuing, Hines thanked fans for their support over the years, and 
reiterated that this is certainly not goodbye. He stated: My love of Bethesda 
and its people has never wavered, and I will never stop being part of this 
incredible community we have grown. 

Wrapping the statement up, Hines said that his experience working alongside 
the teams and people at Bethesda has been the greatest experience of my life, 
and that hes excited to see what the company does next.
