Company Description
At Ubisoft Paris Mobile, today we build the virtual arenas of tomorrow. Mobiles games that are both accessible and far-reaching, in which millions of players take each other on and ultimately come together.
In every one of our creations, we put the focus on gameplay. The gameplay must innovate and federate so that as many people as possible can enjoy it, whether as players or spectators. This is what brings our games to life and makes them dazzle. They tell their stories through the seasons. They are devised not only with great enthusiasm, but also with our players.
Striving for excellence involves learning every day: from our players, from our competitors, and from ourselves. Joining Ubisoft Paris Mobile means benefiting from the resources and expertise of the world's third largest independent video games publisher; it means being able to push forward Ubisoft's biggest licences as part of an agile structure via human-sized teams.
Within our studio, we share the same idea of a challenging and compassionate working environment, one that prospers from the wealth of our talents and the diversity of our personalities. More than anything, we firmly believe that only by playing together can we create the best possible experiences.
