Founded in 2000 as the result of a merger between three small game development studios, Guerrilla Games now fills an 17th century canal mansion in the heart of cosmopolitan Amsterdam. The cultural, historic and entertainment attractions of this vibrant city are all just a short walk – or more commonly, a short cycle ride – away.
Outstanding technology and a strong artistic vision have elevated the company to a prominent rank among Europe's game developers. After the successful release of Killzone for PlayStation®2, Guerrilla was acquired by Sony Computer Entertainment in 2005. It went on to release the critically acclaimed Killzone: Liberation for PSP™ (PlayStation®Portable) and the much-lauded Killzone 2 for PLAYSTATION®3.
Guerrilla is committed to recruiting, developing and retaining the best talent in the industry. Under the banner of the ‘United Nations of Guerrilla,’ employees from 20 different nationalities work to achieve incredibly high production standards. It’s not all work and no play, however, as the company has an in-house massage therapist, a gourmet chef, and weekly Friday Frag Fests.
The studio also makes full use of its unusual and historic surroundings: the mansion was formerly used as a bank and the chambers that were bank vaults now contain the studio’s servers, while the garden house, the oldest in Amsterdam, has been converted into a movie-grade screening room.
