Job Description
For Honor is a live game that constantly pushes its limits! We reinvent ourselves with two ''title updates'' (TUs) every season: we add or activate content every 6 weeks! With 4 seasons a year, this means players receive 8 TUs, allowing us to get immediate feedback on what we've delivered – we quickly see what works well and what doesn't. We adapt, with continuous iterations and constant learning. That's what a ''live game'' is all about.
Do you want to jump into action and grow rapidly? Join us! Shipping regularly can accelerate your career, and we are looking for candidates who aspire to exceed their limits, who are team players, and who want to be part of a solid group where mutual support and ambitious challenges are part of our daily life.
