But when you live in a city that has a dozen or more other game studios, it’s faster and easier to get a new job if you do get laid off. The video game industry can be volatile, and layoffs at any game studio could happen without notice, so job security isn’t always high. There are a number of good reasons why you’d want to live and work in a game dev hotbed city: (Seattle is also brimming with hundreds of delicious teriyaki shops, but that’s beside the point.) The answer is, because Tampa is home to just 3 game studios, while Seattle is bursting at the seams with over 30 game studios. Why move to a rain-soaked city like Seattle, Washington, when you could work at a game dev studio in a sunny beach town like Tampa, Florida? In fact, the city where you find your next job might be the most important decision you make in your entire career. We are taking these matters very seriously and apologize for any inconvenience.Wherever you happen to live right now, you’ll want to consider moving to a video game development hotbed.

It’s because of the support of our fans that we are able to innovate, explore new worlds and new ways to tell stories. Since 2K began 13 years ago, we’ve been creating games that we are proud of, and are excited to play ourselves.
