EA Fuses Mythic with BioWare, Laughs Maniacally
According to a news post on the official Warhammer Online website, EA has combined game development studios BioWare and Mythic Entertainment into one entity for the sake of “restructuring” its RPG and MMO development.
BioWare’s Greg Zeschuk will become the group creative officer for the RPG/MMO development studio, and Mythic co-founder Rob Denton will become Mythic’s general manager. Both will report to BioWare co-founder Ray Muzyka, who will become general manager of the newly formed RPG/MMO development studio group.
BioWare’s operations remain largely unfazed as the studio operations will be the same, but Mythic has suffered one casualty. Mythic’s current general manager, Mark Jacobs, left the company yesterday and will not be a part of the merged studios. His future plans are unknown, and it is not clear whether he willingly left or was handed a pink slip.
