Today we’re excited to announce the opening of our latest studio in Charleston, South Carolina. Its opening makes Side the first gaming services company in the city, marking a pivotal moment for Charleston’s game development landscape with the expectation of creating hundreds of local jobs for the Charleston area over the next few years.

Side Charleston will be led by Ken Fox as Studio Head, reporting to Sebastien Bisch, VP of Operations for the Americas. Fox will oversee day-to-day operations of our new facility, leveraging Charleston’s vibrant tech ecosystem and the wealth of talent it harbors.

“To better serve our US-based partners, we understand the significance and importance of having a domestic QA solution; the synergies are invaluable. Charleston stood out as the ideal location—it’s a growing tech hub with the perfect blend of proximity and highly skilled talent,” said Sebastien Bisch. “Side is excited to create a center of excellence for the industry within the vibrant Charleston community, and we look forward to building a new flagship studio in the US.”

Nestled in the heart of Charleston, our new office boasts state-of-the-art amenities designed for next-gen game testing. Expected to be ISO 27001 compliant by next year, the studio will provide an ideal environment for nurturing local talent and providing top-tier game development services to our clients, all from a secure facility.

We’re thrilled to be continuing our growth trajectory with the establishment of our fourth North American studio in Charleston, building upon the recent acquisition of Ghostpunch Games (now Side Game Development) and their studio location in Fort Lauderdale.
