We are looking for a VFX Artist to help us make our sandbox adventure game, where players design and build their own creations through a mix of crafting, combat, and discovery!

Payload Studios are makers of the award-winning TerraTech and we're working on a very ambitious unannounced new title for Steam & current-gen consoles!

This is a hybrid role, with 2 days per week working at our office in Farringdon, central London, and the option to work up to 3 days from home.

What you'll be doing
As a VFX Artist at Payload Studios, you will work both independently and in cooperation with the Art Director, Artists, and Designers to develop in-game VFX elements for game environments. You'll use your skills and experience to proactively improve and 'polish' certain aspects of the game. Our game is stylised, so we hope that you will bring a passion for stylised VFX!
