Keywords Australia

Keywords Australia is part of a global external development and services partner to the games and entertainment industry. The organisation employs more than 13,000 people across a network of over 70 studios in 26 countries, and works as an extension of publisher teams rather than as an in-house department. Its client base includes 24 of the world's top 25 gaming publishers.

The work spans several disciplines: 3D asset creation and game art for AAA titles, audio development, localization and translation into dozens of languages, functionality and multi-platform QA testing, player and community engagement, and marketing campaign management around game releases. Day-to-day activity varies considerably by studio and by project.

The network was assembled by acquiring specialist studios over the years, and each studio retains its own strengths and culture. The combination of global scale and local expertise shapes how teams operate: staff work alongside clients in gaming and entertainment, including AAA video games, within a studio environment that reflects its own established identity.
