Greg Zeschuk, Ray Muzyka Are Leaving BioWare
The co-founders of BioWare, the faces of the studio, are on their way out.
Zeschuk and Muzyka helped found BioWare in Canada back in 1995. In 2007 it sold to EA.
At an internal meeting this morning, BioWare co-founders Greg Zeschuk and Ray Muzyka announced the duo are leaving the company, I’m told by multiple sources close to the situation.
It’s unclear why Zeschuk and Muzyka are leaving.
BioWare and Electronic Arts shipped Star Wars: The Old Republic last December to a mixed critical reception, and the game has struggled to hold onto users since. Dragon Age 3: Inquisition was formally announced yesterday, running on DICE’s Frostbite 2 engine, and is scheduled for a release in late 2013.
Electronic Arts has not respond to my request for comment.

I said, wow. Didn't take EA long to kill this one.
