Surely you have heard at least about the boss of 343 Industries , indeed from today we should say “former boss” , we are talking about Dan Ayoub who has worked for the software house since 2009 and today leaves the field to officially join the Microsoft team dedicated to Mixed Reality . Ayoub, supervisor of Halo Reach, Halo 4, Halo 5 Guardians and Halo wars 2 , has therefore left the franchise to enter the future of consoles, supervising the next projects closely related to Mixed Reality .

To accompany the great character, 343 Industries has published a short press release:

“ Dan will continue to stay in the big Microsoft family and his office won’t be too far from ours, but we will miss his presence. With his commitment to him, he helped make Halo one of the most beloved franchises of the last decade. Halo Wars 2 is in great hands, and there are exciting news to come. “

In addition to thanks to Ayoub for the work done within the company, the release was a means to reassure fans of the franchise about the great future of the Halo saga . At the moment we do not know exactly the projects on which the former head of 343 Industries will work but we would soon have confirmations, during the next E3 in Los Angeles , as already anticipated and made official by Phil Spencer during the last meeting with the shareholders to report the financial picture of the company.

Probably a strong point has been added to the Mixed Reality team , just think that Ayoub before joining 343 Industries worked as a senior producer in EA for 4 years, then we met him for 2 years as game director of Propaganda Games and finally he is was Ubisoft executive producer for 2008. What do you think of this change of role?
