But he will not serve that role for too long. According to Dot Esports, he will leave the Irvine giant forever on April 7. The official reasons for this movement are still unknown. We would like to remind you that the successor to Morhaime in Blizzard is J. Allen Brack, once the executive producer of World of Warcraft.
In recent weeks we have also witnessed other reshuffles in leading positions at Activision Blizzard. Spencer Neumann and Amrita Ahuja have left the corporation. We hope that the company will manage with this administrative changes and further development of games is not going to be affected by any organizational problems.
