Microsoft will name a new Blizzard president next week.
Blizzard president Mike Ybarra is leaving the company. Ybarra’s departure comes on the same day Microsoft announced 1,900 job cuts that impact Xbox, Zenimax, and Activision Blizzard workers.

That’s how long I will be here.” You can read the full memo from Microsoft’s game content and studios president, Matt Booty, right here.
