After 12 years, Senior Vice President and General Manager of the Warcraft Franchise John Hight has announced his departure from Blizzard Entertainment.
Joining Blizzard Entertainment in 2011, Hight served as a Senior Producer for Mists of Pandaria, as well as Production Director for Diablo III: Reaper of Souls, Legion, and Battle For Azeroth, rising to the position of the Executive Producer and Vice President as the chief caretaker for World of Warcraft. In 2021, he assumed the position of Franchise General Manager, in which he oversaw all development and commercial activities for the Warcraft franchise, including World of Warcraft, Hearthstone, and Rumble.
Prior to his time with Blizzard, he served as a board member of the Academy of Interactive Arts & Sciences, taught courses in game development as an adjunct professor at the USC School of Cinematics, and worked on over 30 games, including Command & Conquer and Neverwinter Nights. While at Sony Computer Entertainment of America, he was credited as an instrumental developer of the PlayStation Network and many critically-acclaimed titles, including flOw, flower, God of War 3, and Mortal Kombat (2011).
Throughout his time as General Manager, Hight distinguished himself by taking the lead on interviews and discussions, giving us a
