"Our business is profitably growing and London is the most logical place for us to found a new studio that will complement our overall global mix of internal and external developers. London is also a fantastically diverse talent magnet.” says Antti Viitanen, SVP Studios.

“We believe that the best game experiences are those that you share with other people,” adds Mark Sorrell, Head of Studio, “So we’re starting a studio to do exactly this. We look forward to bringing a diverse team together to deliver unique MMOs that are creative, inclusive and delightful.”

The London studio joins Rovio’s four other in-house studios (three in Espoo, Finland and one in Stockholm, Sweden) as well as the company’s global network of external partner developers.

Over the next two years, Rovio London will be building a collaborative team of some twenty members. Those looking for a chance to grow and flourish in a Nordic working environment in Central London can follow here  for the latest open positions.
