Sumo Digital, the award-winning video game development studio, announced that it is opening a new studio; Sumo Bangalore and has appointed Stewart Neal as Studio Director. The expansion follows a continued period of growth for Sumo Digital and marks the developer’s second studio location in India, after the launch of Sumo Pune in 2007.
Studio Director Stewart Neal has over 22 years of experience within the games industry and will oversee the launch of Sumo Bangalore whilst continuing to support the growth of Sumo Pune. Sumo Digital studios are recruiting across all disciplines to support the expansion.
Founded in the UK in 2003, Sumo Digital partners with major publishers and platform holders to develop titles across all platforms, including console, mobile and PC. The multi-discipline development house has since grown to become an international family of studios with locations across the UK, Poland and India. Sumo Bangalore marks the 11th studio site and will focus on delivering specialist development services across multiple AAA console projects.
