Narrative Mission Designer

Do you like to show people where to go, but not necessarily what to do? Are you an entertainer that loves collaborative experiences? Have you designed missions for online games before? Check, check, check? Then read on!

We are looking for a mission designer to join the Narrative team for one of our projects. We need someone with technical/design experience from online games and an interest in story and lore. We are creating a fantastic new universe - a thrilling place of adventure, fun and excitement! A place where you can forge new friendships, make bitter enemies and experience countless memorable moments. A place of emergent player stories.

You will be working closely with our Researchers and Lore Masters to create a holistic world and mission design. Your part will be to forge missions, quest lines and help create characters that engage the players and take them on a journey through the world we are creating.

We think the ideal candidate loves creating worlds (and everything in them!), weaving narratives that resonate with the audience and collaborating with others to turn all that into a playable game. On a day to day basis you will switch between working alone with mission content and syncing with the rest of the team on matters related to game design, level design and lore. We are trying to create a highly participatory experience where player stories are the focus so we do not create their stories - they do. We do provide the playground that makes this possible however. It is a world of fascinating characters, immersive plots, engaging conflicts, breath-taking locations and rich history. Do you want to join us on our journey?
