Star Wars: The Old Republic director leaves BioWare after 16 years
0'Star Wars: The Old Republic' creative director Charles Boyd is leaving BioWare after 16 years.
The developer has promised the game is remaining in good hands with "exciting things in the works" including new planets, characters and gameplay.
In a statement, he said: "The 'Star Wars' galaxy has always been a huge part of my life since I was a kid, so getting to play a role in Star Wars: The Old Republic’s growth from its initial vision to a colossal release and then an incredible live service for over a decade has been an amazing experience."
BioWare's general manager Gary Mckay also reassured fans about the future of the game, and he noted the studio remains "committed" to its future.
He added: "He leaves 'SWTOR' in excellent hands with an incredible team that will carry forward our vision for the game. We are committed to SWTOR’s future as we continue to work on the next 'Dragon Age' and 'Mass Effect.' "
Other members of the design leadership team - including lead producer Eric Musco, narrative director Ashley Ruhl, lead writer Caitlyn Sullivan Kelly, UX director Alan Copeland and gameplay design director George Smith - are staying in place.
