MachineGames on being part of Microsoft, going back to the office, and Wolfenstein 3

Briefing

MachineGames has announced the opening of a new office in Sundsvall, located about three and a half hours from their main headquarters in Uppsala. This decision comes as a response to the increasing number of talented programmers from the area who have been contributing to the studio. By establishing a dedicated workspace, MachineGames aims to foster collaboration and innovation among its team members.

For developers, especially programmers and designers, this expansion signifies a commitment to local talent and could lead to more job opportunities in the region. As MachineGames continues to develop titles like Wolfenstein 3, the integration of diverse skills from a broader talent pool will be crucial for the studio's success within the Microsoft framework.

“We might just provide them with a small office space.”
