Back in 2017 game makers Bruce Slater and Freddie Babord were ready to do something new. They realised there was powerful potential in taking an alternative approach to building and running a studio, where triple-A quality and ambition didn’t need to be separated from values of kindness, creativity, playfulness and authenticity. With that in mind, they decided to build Radical Forge, a creative safe haven that understands what a team needs to thrive. The result? A studio with committed resilience to bullshit, a progressive attitude to games and the wider world, and a healthy disregard for the stale conventions of the industry’s past. We’re all equals here. We’re not about separating senior leadership from frontline staff. We’re not about status or playing the rules. We’re not about putting on a front or pretending to be something we’re not. Building unforgettable gaming moments motivates us. Treating our team with kindness and generosity is an instinct and one that’s close to fucking essential to making brilliant, successful games. And that’s exactly what we do. Our team of over 50 has constantly smashed it on our own games and codevelopment projects. And we aren’t going anywhere anytime soon!

About Radical Forge
Radical Forge is a Manchester-based video game studio that develops games and works with publishing partners on new projects. The company’s work includes Golf With Your Friends 2, created in collaboration with Team17 Digital, bringing a new chapter to the multiplayer golfing series. Radical Forge is also developing Southfield, its own game, alongside taking on larger contracts for partners.
The studio’s website features its games, project work, company news and career opportunities, reflecting a focus on both game production and growing its team. Following a rebrand, Radical Forge has introduced a new visual identity as it enters a new phase of development. The company has also raised £2.6 million through NPIF II funding, which it says will support expansion, the creation of 15 jobs, larger contracts and the launch of Southfield.
Based at ABC Buildings on Quay Street in Manchester, Radical Forge presents itself as an expanding game development company with a portfolio spanning partner collaborations and original projects.
