Senior Story and Dialogue Writer

We are a small team (currently fewer than 40 people) with seasoned experience in action-packed role-playing games. We aim to craft unique and immersive stories, blending science fiction with realism in both visuals and narrative.

Chernobylite 2: Exclusion Zone is the sequel to our previous game, which is again set in the Chornobyl Exclusion Zone. We are creating a full-blooded action-RPG, with the main character not only fighting, but also talking, and his conversations with NPCs are non-linear and strongly connected to the gameplay. We are seeking a person who can write dialogues in English, participate in directing recordings of these dialogues with English-speaking actors, and ensure the quality of our localization kit during the localization process.

Numerous story elements need to be written from scratch and rewritten, as they evolve with the game.
