Haven Studios is a game development studio headquartered in Montreal. In May 2021, we embarked on a journey to start Haven as a small team with big ambitions. Our goal was to build a studio of exceptional people where together we could make the kind of games we’ve always wanted to create – games we’ve longed to play. At Haven, we believe that kindness, adaptability and fearless optimism make space for creative excellence. We are a hybrid studio that supports flexibility, focus and collaboration for our teams.
Haven joined the PlayStation Studios family as the first Sony game development team in Canada in 2022. Our first game is in development for PlayStation and PC, a competitive multiplayer action heist game with a vision to entertain and engage players for years to come.

You'll work alongside our Community team to help engage players, support social and creator initiatives, and learn how community management operates inside an AAA game studio. No two days are the same—you'll contribute to player conversations, content creation, feedback analysis, creator programs, and live playtests while gaining firsthand experience helping launch a brand-new live service game.
