Official Word on Greg Zeschuk & Ray Muzyka Status at Bioware
Electronic Arts has responded to rumours that Bioware founders Greg Zeschuk & Ray Muzyka have been deposed and replaced.

German site www.gamersglobal.de went live earlier with rumours that following problems with Star Wars - The Old Republic and lay-offs at Bioware Austin, both founders were on their way out.

EA has since responded (via a Google translation)

"When Greg Zeschuk announced the reorganization of BWA in May, he outlined his plan to return to his family in Edmonton for a much deserved vacation. Greg also announced the new GM of BioWare Austin and Old Republic, Matt Bromberg. Greg is still with EA. He's now back in Canada, taking time off and thinking about new projects. No change with Ray Muzyka."

"As announced in May Greg Zeschuk the reorganization of [Bioware Austin], he also talked about his plan to return to his family in Edmonton to take a much deserved vacation. Greg also announced the new [general manager] of SWTOR Bioware Austin and Matt Bromberg. Greg is still at EA. He is now back in Canada, where he takes a break and thinking of new projects. When Ray Muzyka, there is no change."

So, at the moment it appears that EA hasn't fired two of the most talented and games-aware people that it owns... who would have thunk it?
