Wayfinder Games, new indie studio in Sweden, is fully remote

Multiple former employees of EA DICE and Embark Studios this week revealed their new studio, Wayfinder Games. While the main office will be based in Sweden, the developers themselves can work full remote. The team plans to create a roleplaying game, combining ideas from both single-player games, MMOs and tabletop campaigns.

The employees of the new studio include developers who’ve worked on Minecraft, Star Wars Battlefront and Angry Birds. At the moment, Wayfinder has 18 members of its staff. According to Wayfinder, they’ll not only offer permanent remote-work options, but a more healthy environment geared towards sustainability.
