  • Metzen was recruited by Blizzard in 1994, at the age of 19. At the time, he had expected to bounce between jobs in the comics, games, and film industries. However, the ability of the videogame medium to focus on multiple genres and generate a variety of ideas compelled him to stay in the industry. Metzen pioneered the idea of Blizzard's "strike teams," which provided internal feedback to the company's development teams. This was part of an effort to keep the company's original development culture together. Metzen worked with Blizzard's cinematic team, and gave feedback on its storyboards. Metzen left Blizzard in late 2016, entering retirement. He is also part of the Sons of the Storm.
