Back in 2017 game makers Bruce Slater and Freddie Babord were ready to do something new. They realised there was powerful potential in taking an alternative approach to building and running a studio, where triple-A quality and ambition didn’t need to be separated from values of kindness, creativity, playfulness and authenticity. With that in mind, they decided to build Radical Forge, a creative safe haven that understands what a team needs to thrive. The result? A studio with committed resilience to bullshit, a progressive attitude to games and the wider world, and a healthy disregard for the stale conventions of the industry’s past. We’re all equals here. We’re not about separating senior leadership from frontline staff. We’re not about status or playing the rules. We’re not about putting on a front or pretending to be something we’re not. Building unforgettable gaming moments motivates us. Treating our team with kindness and generosity is an instinct and one that’s close to fucking essential to making brilliant, successful games. And that’s exactly what we do. Our team of over 70 has constantly smashed it on our own games and codevelopment projects. And we aren’t going anywhere anytime soon!

We are excited to announce our new original IP Southfield! Our game is available to Wishlist on Steam right now. Funded by the Private Division Developer Fund, Southfield is a chaotic physics-based sandbox farming game with weird crops, machines and toys! We are incredibly proud of what we have built and can’t wait to see what players make of it during next month’s Next Fest demo. You can find out more and Wishlist Southfield here: https://bit.ly/3SptMjm
If that was another one of 'those weeks, ' you should look at the Radical Forge job site. We've added a host of new roles, including Senior Service Engineer, Senior Environment Concept Artist, Senior Character Artist (Armour Specialist), Senior Tools Engineer (Animation Focused) and Tools Engineer. We look forward to hearing from you soon.
We've been working away at optimizing our upcoming physics-based farming game, Southfield, and wanted to give a shout-out to InstaLOD 👏 Makes lowering level-of-detail in distance incredibly easy, so players can focus on the things in front of them with buttery smooth framerate. 🔥 To quote our Environment Artist, Stewart: "If I didn't have it these past ten months, I'd be f**ked." 🙏 #GameDev

Hey, y'all, we have some opportunities to work with the talented team at Radical Forge. We have a great time-off package that includes duvet and volunteering days, medical cover, health and wellbeing allowances, and more. Plus, you get to work with some of the best humans in the industry (but we would say that because we are hugely biased). We have a Lead 3D Artist role that can be fully remote and a Senior IT Technician role that is a hybrid role from our Middlesbrough HQ. Find more at the link below.
