Today, Ubisoft announced it will significantly grow its studios in India. Ubisoft Pune and Ubisoft Mumbai are launching an online recruitment drive to hire more than 250 game testers. These new talents will be responsible for ensuring the high quality of Ubisoft’s video games through manual and partially automated testing.
Ubisoft currently has more than 1,300 employees in India working across production, quality control, and business support teams. Ubisoft Pune, the company’s pioneer studio in India, was acquired in 2008 and has contributed to many of Ubisoft’s biggest successes, including Far Cry 5, Steep, Just Dance 2019 and Just Dance Now. Ubisoft Mumbai, which opened in 2018 and further strengthened the company’s presence in the country, has collaborated on games such as the recently released Hyper Scape and the highly anticipated Watch Dogs Legion. With the recent announcement of Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time remake the studio has achieved a new milestone.
“Our objective has always been to attract passionate talents locally and this recruitment drive is another step towards that goal. Ubisoft India is a great place for passionate people who want to build an exciting career in the gaming industry,” said Mrs Samira Chabani, HR Director, Ubisoft India Studios.
