Kanneg announced the changeover yesterday in his first producer’s letter, saying that Irving has moved to “a great new opportunity” in the company while Kanneg himself moved up from his previous job as director of live services.
SWTOR’s newest producer gave out his professional and gamer cred résumé: “I’ve been with BioWare/EA and SWTOR for the past six years, where I’ve held a variety of positions, and have always been a very active player with nearly 10,000 hours of gameplay, 28 plus characters and tons of achievements.”
Kanneg will be overseeing Update 5.2: The War for Iokath, which is scheduled to come out on April 18th. In the letter, he told the community to expect a SWTOR roadmap soon to explain what’s coming for the rest of the year.
