Exodus Studio Head Steps Down Just After Major Trailer Drop At The Game Awards
""At this stage, James felt his work on the game was complete and that the polishing and tuning were in great hands with the team," Hasbro said in a statement given to Bloomberg. Exodus is still fairly far from release, which is currently scheduled for early 2027. This is an unusually long window if the game is already up to the polishing and tuning stage."
"Ohlen intended to retire from the video games industry altogether in 2018 when he left Bioware, and even formed his own tabletop company. After refusing multiple offers of work from various video games companies, he accepted a compelling offer from Wizards to lead Archetype in 2019, promised a higher level of creative freedom. With Ohlen gone, Archetype still boasts a number of ex-Bioware employees on its team, including VP and general manager Chad Robertson, and lead writer Drew Karpyshyn."
James Ohlen stepped down as head of Archetype Entertainment after completing his role leading development on the studio's debut sci‑fi RPG, Exodus. He led the Wizards of the Coast-owned studio since its founding in 2019 and accepted a new role with Wizards as a creative consultant focused on tabletop RPGs. Ohlen intended to retire from video games in 2018 and had formed a tabletop company before joining Archetype. Exodus received a new trailer at The Game Awards and is slated for early 2027. Archetype retains multiple ex‑Bioware staff, including VP Chad Robertson and lead writer Drew Karpyshyn, with the team continuing game polishing.
