Beenox, a development studio for Call of Duty\u00ae in Canada, will be expanding its footprint in Quebec to include Montreal to support the growth of the franchise and its ambitious projects. This recruiting investment will seek to increase Beenox\u2019s staff by more than 20% and is the Quebec City-based studio\u2019s second major expansion in less than two years under the leadership of Nour Polloni, Studio Head at Beenox. To date, the studio employs over 400 talented game development professionals, including more than 150 hired since last year alone.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am very excited to announce the arrival of a new Beenox studio location in Montreal. We are counting on the city\u2019s great diversity of talent to build a team that will allow us to broaden our creative perspective and bring even more diversity to our development. This investment in Montreal is the next key step in our studio\u2019s growth as we continue to support the creative ambitions across the Call of Duty franchise. We want our new location to attract local and international talent and contribute to the vibrant video game industry in Montreal,\u201d said Nour Polloni, Studio Head at Beenox.<\/p>\n

The arrival of Beenox in Montreal also allows the studio to support its ongoing development projects across Activision\u2019s Call of Duty series. The team has built a solid reputation for its ability to provide essential input to the blockbuster franchise, including creating new content for each season of Call of Duty: WarzoneTM<\/sup> as well as collaborating to co-develop an all-new mobile experience within Call of Duty\u00ae.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\n\n\t\t

Beenox already employs nearly 50 team members in the Montreal metropolitan area. The team is currently hiring for roles in programming, design and art, as well as for its mobile team. Nour Polloni and her team now want to offer them an inspiring workspace that reflects the culture of the studio. The location of the Beenox studio in Montreal will be revealed in the coming months.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe recipe for our success is our studio culture based on three core values: team spirit, excellence and balance. Being a part of the Beenox team is to feel a part of a big, united family where we share the same values and aspirations: passion invested in every aspect of our games, a deep commitment to quality and the ambition to create the best gaming experiences for our community. The Montreal team will be an integral part of the development process for all our projects. We want to keep on growing this culture by hiring people who, like us, care about quality games and who have a desire to succeed together.\u201d<\/p>\n

Montr\u00e9al International and Investissement Qu\u00e9bec International are supporting Beenox in its expansion project.<\/p>\n

Montr\u00e9al International is committed to supporting the local gaming ecosystem, notably by attracting qualified workers to enhance local productions with their creativity,\u201d said St\u00e9phane Paquet, President and CEO at Montr\u00e9al International.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor more than 20 years, Beenox has distinguished itself among video game studios based in Quebec. By continuing its expansion in Montreal, Beenox is confirming that our technological ecosystem is highly attractive. Our team will work alongside Nour Polloni and the entire Activision team and will continue to support subsidiaries of foreign companies in their activities in Quebec so that their investments generate interesting benefits in all regions,\u201d says Hubert Bolduc, President of Investissement Qu\u00e9bec International.<\/p>\n
