Bend Studio is a team of over 100 creative people, working together to create AAA games that are fun. We are engineers, artists, writers, designers, animators, character artists, video editors, recruiters, IT specialists, producers, directors, and office managers. It takes every one of us, working together, to create not just great games, but the great environment we share.
Bend Studio is located in Bend Oregon, in the heart of the Central Oregon high desert, a premier resort and vacation destination for adventure seekers from around the world. Within a 10 minute drive of the studio, you can enjoy world-class skiing, mountain biking, rock climbing, golf, hiking, rafting, white water, paddle boarding. Located in the Old Mill District, our brand new, state-of-the-art facility is within walking distance of great breweries, restaurants, shopping, and more. Bend also boasts great schools, medical facilities, and a four-year college. Our people come here to make great games and they stay because it’s a great place to live.
Founded in 1993, Bend Studio is famous for making fun games. From the original Syphon Filter series across three platforms, Resistance Retribution on the PlayStation Portable, and the award-winning launch title for the PlayStation Vita: Uncharted Golden Abyss, our games are known for their great gameplay, compelling narratives and awesome visuals and audio. Our focus has always been on 3rd person action / adventure games, and this focus continues with the massive, open-world game, Days Gone.
We love creating and exploring new technology. We love making AAA games. But at Bend Studio, the most important thing to us is our team. Everyone contributes, everyone helps us grow, and together, everyone is Bend Studio.
For 40 years, Naughty Dog has been crafting best-selling, critically acclaimed games that constantly push the boundaries of interactive storytelling, gameplay, and technology. Naughty Dog recently released The Last of Us Part I and The Last of Us Part II Remastered for the PS5. We're also proud to say that both games are now available for the first time on PC. We’re currently busy at the kennel working on Intergalactic: The Heretic Prophet and we'd love to find talented individuals to join us.
Naughty Dog games have long been lauded for their evocative, character-driven stories and attention to detail. We are committed to innovation within our games and as such have curated some of the top creative and technically innovative minds in the industry. We welcome diverse candidates and believe that a broad range of cultural and life experiences contribute to the overall well-being and success of the studio and the titles we craft together.
