“The Romanian gaming scene is flourishing, and Bucharest in particular is home to many talented people in the tech and gaming industry. With our continued growth and increased level of ambition, assuring that we have top quality QA is of the utmost importance. We are therefore very excited to be able to expand to this region with one of the most crucial parts of the development process and we are even planning on adding more functions to this studio over time,” said Funcom CEO Rui Casais.

Funcom has offices in Oslo (Norway), Lisbon (Portugal) and Raleigh (USA).

Funcom is an Oslo-based developer and publisher of online games for PC and consoles. It was founded in 1993 and is most famous for developing massively multiplayer online games such as Conan Exiles, Secret World Legends, Age of Conan and Anarchy Online.

In early 2019, Funcom acquired the rights to produce video games based on Frank Herbert’s best-selling science-fiction novel Dune. An open-world survival game based on Dune is currently in development and has been labeled as Funcom’s most ambitious game to date.
