Experienced Creators.

World-class games.

Romero Games is exclusively focused on developing and consulting on first-person shooter games. Our team brings decades of experience to the table, with significant leadership roles on some of the most influential shooters ever made.

We’ve been fortunate to help craft genres and create great games—and we’ve also learned powerful lessons from projects that didn’t hit the mark. All of that experience makes us better developers. Individually, our team has shipped over 100 titles and earned numerous industry awards, including multiple Game of the Year honors and a BAFTA Special Award. We are exceptionally passionate about games.

If you are too, we’d love to hear from you. We collaborate with experienced freelancers and contractors across all development disciplines. You’re welcome to submit your CV to [email protected] for future consideration. Due to the volume of submissions we receive, we’re unable to respond to every inquiry, but we’ll be in touch if an opportunity arises that matches your skills and experience.

Values

  • Be different. We want to be the company that we wish we’d always worked for, one that understands that happy, fulfilled people make good games, and that happiness comes from our homes, our lives and our work.

  • Be diverse and inclusive. We welcome and celebrate the full range of lived experience and believe it makes our games and our teams better. Games are their players, and their developers should reflect them.

  • Be creative. We look for the concepts that have yet to be uncovered and outposts that have not been explored. We craft unique visual identities with compelling gameplay. 

  • Be innovative. We challenge boundaries by being diverse, inclusive, and accessible in our games and our teams, and looking for ideas in places that others overlook.

  • Be excited: We have fun developing games together, and we believe that same sense of fun and wonder finds its way into the experiences we make for players. 

  • Be respectful. Our culture is one of mutual respect. We’ve worked together for a long time and the key to our longevity as a team and a company is the respect we have for one another.

  • Be gamers. Everyone in Romero Games is exceedingly talented. We could excel at anything. Yet, every last one of us is here because we wanted to make games more than anything else.
