Former Blizzard COO Paul Sams has been named the new CEO of Ready at Dawn. The developer is now looking into publishing its own games on multiple platforms.
Ready at Dawn co-founder Ru Weerasuriya said the following:
"Words can’t describe how excited our team and I are to have Paul join the Ready at Dawn family. He is not only one of the most accomplished, respected and experienced leaders in our industry, I am also fortunate to count him as a close friend. It is never easy finding someone to take over the reins of a company after this many years but I cannot think of anyone better suited to guide the team as we look to the future.
In addition, this opportunity further fulfills a goal we had long sought. With Paul’s arrival, the entire team at our studio in Irvine will turn its attention solely on creative and game development, while Austin will become the focus of our business endeavours. Paul’s expertise will be essential in achieving some of our goals, including our desire to seek a strategic partner in helping us create and retain ownership of our own transmedia IPs."
Ready at Dawn is most well-known for developing the PlayStation 4 exclusive The Order: 1886.
