Roll1ng Thund3rz announces leadership transition, maintains focus on Web3 gaming

Roll1ng Thund3rz has announced that it is parting ways with its CTO, Valentin Cobelea.

Kenny Creanor will assume interim leadership of the Roll1ng Thund3rz team as it continues to deliver on its ambitious roadmap to revolutionise gaming with Web3 technology. Kenny has held various positions within Roll1ng Thund3rz and Zilliqa over the past years, including most recently as Lead Developer.

The strategic direction of Roll1ng Thund3rz remains unchanged, and the business will continue to pursue growth through the development of gaming titles in the Web3 space, such as its free-to-play, skill-based shooter Web3War. 

Speaking on the announcement, Zilliqa CEO Matt Dyer, said: "I’d like to extend my thanks to Valentin for all his hard work over the past couple years, both at Zilliqa and later at Roll1ng Thund3rz, and I wish him well for the future. Moving forward, I am excited to see the Roll1ng Thund3rz team continue to pursue their unwavering vision and goals, and push in new ways to achieve them."

The collaboration and shared vision between Zilliqa and Roll1ng Thund3rz continues in strength, with Zilliqa continuing to deliver and refine the infrastructure that underpins Roll1ng Thund3rz’s Web3 gaming ecosystem.

The roadmap for Roll1ng Thund3rz, originally spun out of Zilliqa as a standalone company in 2023, continues at pace and as planned with several exciting updates to share in the near future.
