Today is one of those days when you get news that you didn’t expect. Larry Hryb, better known to the Xbox community as Major Nelson, has decided to take a step back. The man who has been one of the most recognizable visible images in the Xbox community has decided to take a step back from his career at the age of 65.

This good old Hryb did not give details on the reasons for his departure, but we can assume that he is looking for another type of adventure. As he explains in his tweets, he will take on a new challenge, even if he did not specify his destination.

See you soon Larry, and thank you for everything

The farewell text is a bit laconic to tell the truth, and everyone will have their own reading on the subject. In his text, he takes the opportunity to thank the entire Xbox team for trusting him for the project.

After 20 incredible years, I decided to take a step back and work on the next chapter of my career. As I take a moment to think about everything we’ve done together, I want to thank the millions of gamers around the world who have made me part of their lives.

I also thank the Xbox team members for trusting me to engage directly with our customers. The future of Xbox is bright, and as a gamer, I can’t wait to see how it evolves.

Thank you and see you soon online.

Major Nelson has been with us for 20 years and has organized various events such as Inside Xbox, the X0s and many more. In addition, he is also responsible for the official Xbox podcast, which will now be suspended while a new candidate is found.

The Official Xbox Podcast will go on hiatus this summer and return in a new format.

We wish him good luck in his new projects and hope to hear from him soon.
