Today we have important news to share with the community. EA is restructuring its RPG and MMO games development into a new group that includes both Mythic and BioWare. This newly formed team will be led by Ray Muzyka, co-founder and General Manager of BioWare. With this change, Ray becomes Group General Manager of the new RPG/MMO studio group. BioWare’s other co-founder, Greg Zeschuk will become Group Creative Officer for the new RPG/MMO studio group. Rob Denton will step up as General Manager of Mythic and report to Ray. BioWare’s studios remain unchanged and continue to report to Ray.

Mark Jacobs, current General Manager of Mythic will leave EA on June 23, 2009. We thank Mark for his contributions at Mythic and wish him the very best going forward. Mark played a major part in the success of Mythic with his contribution as General Manager and Lead Designer of WAR.

Mythic retains a strong team led by Rob who co-founded Mythic in 1995. Rob played a critical role in the development of Dark Age of Camelot. In his previous role as COO, he was responsible for all day-to-day management of the studio including all development, operations and support.

Please join us in celebrating the union of these two award-winning studios.

i was just looking up info about all this and who Ray Muzyka is and found out he/bioware are involved with the Star Wars: The Old Republic MMO and its the first MMO to be fully voiced by actor's which is pretty cool for player and non-player chars. thats more like hundred thousands worth of recoreded lines.

I really hope you came out of a test tube because otherwise you make me ashamed to be the same species.

unneeded fluff draining cash that could be better spent elsewhere imo.

sure its cool with voiceovers but after the first time ppl are just gonna klick through them anyway.
