VFX Artist - Stylized

Box Dragon is a new PC game development studio founded by game dev veterans from Riot Games and Stunlock Studios. We’re located in Gothenburg and backed by Coffee Stain. Our team has over 30 years combined game dev experience and each member of our team comes from a different background.
We each bring something unique to the table and we have a passion for sharing stories. We make games around the idea of novel fun for our players; we craft emergent experiences in stylized worlds supported by system-driven gameplay. If this sounds like a great fit for you, we’re scaling up our team!
As the VFX artist at Box Dragon, you’ll be our specialist for bringing flair to our gameplay experience. You’re someone who excels at expressivity in VFX and passionate about creating a range of diverse effects, from the smallest spark to the biggest boom. You will be working closely with our Game Director and art team to create stylized effects that align with our gameplay and our game’s dark and painterly world.
We’re a small team, so you will have the opportunity to express yourself in your work and hone your craft by working on a wide variety of challenges.
This is a permanent full-time in-studio position based in Gothenburg, Sweden. Kindly submit a demo reel or portfolio with your application.
