Former id studio director Tim Willits joins World War Z developer Saber Interactive

Last month, id Software studio director Tim Willits announced that he would, after 24 years with the company, be moving on to pastures new. And now we know where he was heading; Willits has revealed that he's the new chief creative officer of World War Z developer Saber Interactive.

Willits broke the news on Twitter, confirming that he's been in the role since 1st August, and that he'll be "leading the creative vision of [Saber's] five studios around the world."

In recent years, Saber - which was founded in 2001, and has offices in New Jersey, St. Petersburg, Madrid, Minsk, Sundsvall, and Liverpool - has scored hits with its lighthearted basketball series, NBA Playgrounds. More recently, World War Z - its co-operative zombie shooter - sold over 2 million copies. Saber is also handling porting duties on the upcoming Ghostbusters video game remaster for Switch, Xbox One, PS4, and PC, as well as CD Projeckt's ambitious Witcher 3: Complete Edition for Switch.
