\nHey everyone. As mentioned earlier in the week<\/a>, our lovely features editor Christian Donlan is soon to be Eurogamer features editor no more. He’s leaving that role – but his words will still be staying on the site. <\/p>\n

\nFrom Monday, Christian – or just “Donlan” to all of us – will move to a freelance writing position, with regular articles for Eurogamer most weeks. He’ll also have a new title, of Contributing Editor. <\/p>\n

\nThe move has been in the planning for a while (so is nothing to do with more recent changes<\/a>) and is entirely to make sure Donlan has more time in his life for other things, including family. You can hear him chat more about it all in the next Inside Eurogamer podcast, which should be landing for Supporters<\/a> very soon.\n<\/p>\n
