Tomb Raider-sjefen går av med umiddelbar virkning
Darrell Gallagher, Crystal Dynamics' sjef og Square Enix' direktør for Tomb Raider-varemerket, har sagt opp jobben og slutter med umiddelbar virkning. Under Gallaghers ledelse har Crystal Dynamics lykkes med å renovere Tomb Raider som spillserie, men nå vet vi ikke hva han skal gjøre. Da Gamereactor besøkte utvikleren i oktober, hadde Gallagher reist bort uten å informere avdelingssjefene, så det er rimelig å anta at han dukker opp i en annen spillrelatert jobb innen kort tid.

"New Studio Leadership
Hi Everyone,
After spending years working on a game, the launch is always an exciting time. We are beyond thrilled to see the positive critical and fan response to Rise of the Tomb Raider. The game has been nominated for several awards, including The Game Awards' "Best Action/Adventure Game" and "Best Performance", and more accolades come in each day.
As we continue to grow our studio and portfolio, we have some exciting news to share: Ron Rosenberg and Scot Amos have been named as co-studio heads for Crystal Dynamics. Scot and Ron each bring a unique skill set and each will focus on owning different aspects of running a studio, while ultimately making all major decisions together. Both seasoned Crystal Dynamics veterans, Ron and Scot took over a few months ago, and the transition has been seamless. Now that we have a bit of breathing room after the launch, we wanted to formally introduce them in their new role to all of you."
