Employee Promise

At Avalanche Studios Group, we provide goals, instead of instructions, and the opportunity to do the best work of your career. We believe in worlds beyond limits and are committed to developing a diverse and inclusive workplace. As an equal opportunity employer, we value diversity at our company and believe that everyone at Video Games Company Group has a shared responsibility to create an open and inclusive work environment where everyone is treated equally and with respect.

The Stockholm location

Our Stockholm office is situated in Södermalm, the beating heart of the city’s game industry. It’s a physical representation of our games – the lush vegetation of Just Cause and theHunter: Call of the Wild meets corroded metal straight out of Mad Max. It has everything you need to make it your creative base camp.

The Malmö location

You’ll find us in a standout building from 1958, just a stone’s throw from the Central Station. Within these walls, the American dream was leveraged to sell muscle cars more than half a century ago. Today, the location balances Avalanche Studios Group’s industrial, high-octane heritage with a bright and homey vibe featuring resident dogs and patio-grown chillies.

Our values

At Avalanche Studios Group, we create worlds beyond limits. But that’s not exclusive to our games, so we’re committed to developing a diverse and inclusive workplace. All Avalanches have a shared responsibility to create an open work environment where everyone is treated equally and respectfully. Being part of our world is not contingent on your heritage, your gender, or sexual orientation. It’s all about your passion and creativity.
