Whilst staying within the lore of the game you're encouraged to bring your own creativity and eye for detail to expand Pandora. You'll help to develop our ambitious art team, guide the production of outsourced art, and take concepts from initial briefs through to launch, collaborating with other Concept Artists, an Art Director, 3D-Artist, and multidisciplinary game developers.

It's also your passion and understanding of the Avatar IP that makes you great at communicating feedback and getting your ideas across.
Besides the above we're looking for someone aligned with our core values and the following skills and experience:
