Creative Assembly

At the heart of Creative Assembly is a culture deeply rooted in crafting uniquely deep and immersive gaming experiences that captivate players for a lifetime. For over 37 years, this vision has driven the creation of a legacy founded on the intricate battles and fully realised real-time strategy of the Total War series, and the critically acclaimed tension and thrill of Alien: Isolation. The company's ethos is built upon the pillars of Quality, Focus, Teamwork, Respect, and Trust. These values are not just words; they are the driving force behind every project and interaction, fostering an environment where creative, collaborative, yet decisive actions are the norm. This approach recognizes the agility and pace required in the dynamic world of game development. Creative Assembly prides itself on gathering the greatest talent from around the globe, with teams in the UK and Bulgaria bringing diverse viewpoints to the art of game-making. This international collaboration enriches the development process, ensuring that games are not only loved but played for years to come.

The commitment to players is paramount. Creative Assembly takes its responsibility to deliver definitive games in the strategy and survival spaces seriously, valuing player feedback and insights to place them at the core of every decision. This player-centric approach shapes everything from gameplay features to communication strategies. Beyond game development, Creative Assembly is dedicated to making a positive impact through its award-winning education and social responsibility programme, The Legacy Project. This initiative aims to address societal inequalities by providing access to technology and education, including a scholarship programme for low-income British students and significant technology donations. The studio culture is collaborative and supportive, with a strong emphasis on looking after one another and helping each individual achieve their best work. Prioritizing skills training, lifelong learning, inclusive behaviours, and wellbeing, alongside valuing diversity and inclusion through employee resource groups, ensures a vibrant and thriving workplace. As Creative Assembly embarks on new adventures, including a return to the survival-horror genre with a sequel to Alien: Isolation and ongoing development in the Total War universe, the next era promises to build upon this rich cultural foundation.
