För två år sedan lämnade Blizzard-chefen Mike Morhaime företaget för att jobba med någonting annat spelrelaterat. Sedan dess har fler Blizzard-veteraner lämnat bygget, men vad de skulle göra efter Blizzard har varit okänt. Nu är det inte lika okänt längre då Morhaime meddelat att han startat en ny spelstudio vid namn Dreamhaven tillsammans med sina gamla Blizzard-anställda.

Dreamhaven kommer bestå av två utvecklarstudior vid namn Moonshot och Secret Door. Moonshot kommer ledas av Jason Chayes, Dustin Browder och Ben Thompson medan Secret Door kommer ledas av Chris Sigaty, Alan Dabiri och Eric Dodds. I ett uttalande skrivs detta om de olika studiorna:

Moonshot is led by Jason Chayes, Dustin Browder, and Ben Thompson. Chayes was previously an Executive Producer at Blizzard Entertainment where he led the Hearthstone team, a Senior Director at Electronic Arts, and before that, led art teams for the Walt Disney Company’s game division. Browder’s twenty-five year career includes roles as Game Director on StarCraft II, Heroes of the Storm, Command and Conquer, and The Lord of the Rings. Thompson’s credits include Creative Director on Hearthstone, Art Director for the World of Warcraft trading card game, with additional credits on Dungeons & Dragons and Magic: The Gathering. Moonshot is also home to a team of seasoned developers who’ve collectively worked on some of gaming’s most popular franchises.
Secret Door is led by Chris Sigaty, Alan Dabiri, and Eric Dodds, who’ve worked on multiple genre-defining games. Sigaty’s roles have included Executive Producer on Hearthstone, StarCraft II, and Heroes of the Storm, as well as Lead Producer on the original Warcraft III. Dodds was the original Game Director of Hearthstone and veteran game designer on World of Warcraft and StarCraft. Dabiri has filled both Technical Director and Game Director roles and has worked on Warcraft III, StarCraft II, and Heroes of the Storm. They are joined by a team of highly talented developers with extensive industry experience and are beginning to explore new game experiences together.

Några spel har inte presenterats och det lär troligtvis dröja innan någon sådant sker. Men dessa personer har gett oss timmar och åter timmar av underhållning när de var hos Blizzard, så förhoppningsvis kommer trevligheter serveras.
