Anthem has lost its lead producer.

Ben Irving, Anthem's lead producer, left BioWare after having spent eight years in the Canadian studio. The creator informed of his departure on Twitter. He didn't give any reasons, but he said it was his decision. This does not mean a break with the gaming industry - Irving will take up an "exciting" job with another developer, although he hasn't revealed anything else.

The next job of the dev, however, is not the main issue of discussion surrounding this information. For many, the departure of Anthem's main producer is further evidence of the poor condition of BioWare's latest title, which has not been as successful as Star Wars: The Old Republic), his departure may be a bad sign for the future of game.

Ben Irving will not lead the further development of the game.

This is not the first sad news about Anthem. The Dragon Age IV did not inspire optimism in the community.
