Our take

Bossa Studios is a BAFTA winning independent games developer and publisher, with a strong emphasis on creativity and team freedom. They have a history of being one of the first studios to develop on new platforms or invest in new initiatives, such as virtual reality, smartwatches, Apple Arcade and more.

Their community is integral to their ethos, as best represented by Worlds Adrift; an ambitious undertaking that's redefining the genre through its use of user-generated content, which they're proud to label as the world's first Community-Crafted MMO.

Bossa has grown to have attracted millions of users globally, by launching successful games on PC, mobile, Playstation and VR. Bossa's biggest hits are Surgeon Simulator, I Am Bread and the BAFTA-winning Monstermind.
