SWTOR Lead Designer Leaves Bioware for Greener Pastures

October 4, 2012 by Ian Miles Cheong

It’s the end of an era.

Bioware

The glory days of Bioware’s MMO studio in Austin, Texas are coming to an end as yet another one of its lead developers has announced his departure from the company that was supposed to be Bioware’s bastion for online game development.

Following the departure of other devs—some of whom are working on the promising turn-based strategy RPG, The Banner Saga—Star Wars: The Old Republic lead designer Daniel Erickson is the latest big name to leave the flagging studio.

The developer has since created a Twitter account, which you can follow here, to aid in his quest to find a new job.

Other developers, like Rich Vogel, have landed at Bethesda’s newly opened studio in Austin.
