OUR BENEFITS:
Fully Remote: We don't have a central office and don't plan to. We believe the flexibility of remote enables people to do their best work and the studio to bring together the best talent.
Studio Ownership: We want everyone on the team to have a meaningful ownership stake in the studio and offer outsized equity grants
Health Benefits: We offer excellent and fully covered medical plans with a $0 deductible.
Stoke Fund: An annual stipend for pursuing peak experiences, whatever that means for each person — whether it's traveling with your partner, a board game weekend with friends, F1 Miami, Larping, or something as mundane as sky diving.
Take what you need PTO: In addition to team-wide breaks scheduled into our roadmap, we support team members taking whatever time they need to recharge.
401k: We offer a 401k plan for tax advantaged savings for everyone.
Stoke Games is a new independent game studio dedicated to crafting enduring multiplayer games that challenge and bring players together. Formed by veterans with experience on some of the most beloved games in the industry, we believe game development is not a factory process but a creative endeavor and a love letter to an audience.
Our first game is what we call “shooter-adjacent” and focuses on competitive PvP with innovative twists and heavy doses of strategic, deliberate action.
