While we all know about Bill Roper (Diablo and Diablo 2) and his team leaving Blizzard and setting up Flagship Studios (Hellgate London), Another batch of ex Blizzard developers, led by World of Warcraft Team Lead Mark Kern, had also followed suit and established the company known as Red 5 Studios. With such AAA games as Starcraft, Diablo and World of Warcraft under their belts, i'm pretty excited with what they will come up with next.
