Crash Bandicoot and Tony Hawk's Pro Skater creators are now part of Blizzard
In the new year - new opportunities and mergers. So thought Activision, announcing the merger of the studio Vicarious Visions with Blizzard.
Now the authors of Crash Bandicoot: N. Sane Trilogy, Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 1 + 2 and a number of other projects will stop creating their own games. In turn, the head of Vicarious Visions, Jen Onil, became executive vice president of production at Blizzard.
Jen Oneal's appointment as executive vice president of operations means she will work directly with Blizzard President Jay Allen Brack. It is also very likely that Jen's team will now take a high position in the company and will be engaged in the development of Blizzard games directly.
Prior to the merger with Blizzard, Vicarious Visions had already worked with Activision. Back in 2005, the promising studio became part of the essentially parent company of Blizzard and managed to work on Guitar Hero, Destiny, Spyro, Call of Duty and a number of other projects.
