Creation is the soul of our studio.

We are animators, gameplay engineers, designers, writers, environmental artists, audio designers, cinematic artists, 3D modelers, mission designers, tech artists, producers, open-world designers, concept artists, production assistants, and tech engineers from diverse backgrounds, gender identities, and lived experiences, but we all share the same goal:

To make the best interactive entertainment possible.

Here are some of our stories.

Team Values

We foster an open and transparent environment where everyone feels comfortable providing constructive feedback about all aspects of the game.

We encourage the showing of work that’s still in progress.

We don’t attack or question unfinished work, we celebrate its promise.

We blame the problem, not the person.

This is a safe place to fail, and we don't view failure as a negative, but as the natural result of pushing boundaries and trying new things.
