Rebellion are proud of having established an open, friendly, and creative atmosphere. Their people love what they do and have fun doing it! As a big indie developer, they have complete creative freedom over their titles which allows them to work on a massive variety of projects across all the major platforms.

For 30 years they have been creating incredible video games across multiple studios, but Rebellion is more than just games. They have their own film and mo-cap studio, create board games, publish books, and through 2000AD, publish comics and graphic novels such as the amazing Judge Dredd.

They operate across multiple UK locations, with studios based in Oxford, Warwick, Liverpool, and Wakefield. Work-life balance is important to them, and they want everyone at Rebellion to work in the way that works best for them. So, if you are based in the UK, they are open to discussing remote and/or Hybrid working options.
