Amazon Games Launches First European Studio Bucharest

Led by former Ubisoft director Cristian Pana, the new studio aims to expand Amazon Games' development and publishing capabilities.

Amazon Games' Bucharest studio will support both current and future projects, including a new Tomb Raider game and a Lord of the Rings MMO.
The studio is part of Amazon Games' broader strategy to tap into Europe's rich talent pool and enhance its global development footprint.
Cristian Pana, with over 20 years of experience, will lead the Bucharest team, bringing expertise from franchises like Far Cry and The Division.
The Bucharest studio follows Amazon Games' recent layoffs and aligns with the industry's trend of opening new studios amidst ongoing challenges.
Amazon Games continues to expand its international presence, adding to existing studios in Orange County, Montreal, San Diego, and Seattle.
