NCsoft execs play musical chairs, reshuffle

NCsoft sent out a press release today, announcing that two of their big execs were looking for new homes over the holidays. Robert Garriott (not to be confused with Richard Garriott, his brother) is stepping down as the president of NCsoft's North American wing and is going to be taking a far more nebulous role in "global business development and planning." Reportedly, he'll be working with NCsoft's CEO Taek Jim, though it's not clear at this point whether he'll be headed out to NCsoft's home base abroad or whether he'll be staying in Austin long-term.

Taking Garriott's place at the helm of the North American operations will be Chris Chung, who got his start managing the business end of ArenaNet, and will be moving up from his current position as the VP of worldwide product development. Both Garriott's move and Chung's promotion will officially take effect on the first of the new year.

We have no inkling yet whether this will mean anything for us gamers, though we'd assume probably very little.
