After opening its doors in mid-September, Remedy Stockholm has now officially settled into their permanent offices this week!
The team had previously set up temporary offices in the same building, while their studio was under construction. To celebrate the completion, they held a mini-housewarming involving cake, champagne, and (naturally) balloons with the new logo. The company is now located at Torkel Knutssonsgatan 24 in Södermalm, Stockholm.
How Remedy Sweden came about. The trial for a second studio went ahead in 2020, led by the General Manager of the Vanguard project, Johannes Mang. After a year in the works, Johannes stated that “the shift to location-agnostic work in the wake of COVID made us realize that Remedy is a state of mind, rather than a place in Finland”.
The Sweden-based studio holds approximately 25 developers and is embracing a hybrid working style. On the topic, James Salt (Game Director at Remedy Sweden) has previously stated “We understand that everyone is different, and has different needs, on different days. Some days are best spent focused, headphones on, working on something cool, whereas other days, such as when teams are working on planning, perhaps would benefit from in-person facetime. The hybrid model is about letting people choose the method that works best for them, on any given day”
