About

At ArenaNet, the core belief is that games are a powerful art form, capable of communicating ideas, telling compelling stories, and reflecting diverse cultures. This conviction has fueled their passion for over two decades, driving them to dream up and meticulously craft immersive online worlds. Their mission is to provide spaces where players from all walks of life can embark on adventures, make discoveries, find relaxation, and simply play. They see games as a unique medium that brings art to life, casting players in starring roles within story-rich environments and making them the heroes of cinematic action sequences. The team at ArenaNet paints breathtaking digital landscapes, complete with ever-changing skies, and composes evocative musical scores to accompany players on their journeys, creating fantastic worlds for real people to share real experiences. Central to ArenaNet's philosophy is the understanding that technology, while advanced, is secondary to fresh ideas, engaging gameplay, and tools that foster positive shared experiences. They are staunch advocates for inclusivity, believing that gaming is for everyone, and are deeply committed to nurturing and supporting healthy global communities. This commitment extends to their internal culture, where they champion diversity, equity, and inclusion. ArenaNet strives to build games for every kind of person, which necessitates a team comprised of every kind of person. They foster an environment where collaboration, the celebration of differences, and the empowerment of each team member to shine are paramount. Recognizing that game development is an incredible collaborative effort, they highly value teamwork, acknowledging that each individual brings unique ideas, solutions, and life experiences to the table. This ethos means actively recruiting talent from marginalized and underrepresented groups, standing by their employees, protecting them from harassment, and diligently working to sustain a safe, inclusive, and dynamic community where everyone can contribute to making the world a better place, both in-game and in reality.
