Iron Galaxy Studios announced that they will be opening a brand-new development studio located in good ol' Nassville, Tennessee. The studio, with the help of the state of Tennessee, will invest $950,000 into the new Nashville office with a goal of creating more than 100 new tech jobs over the next five years.
This Nashville expansion will be the third office for Iron Galaxy. It will join the existing offices located in Chicago and Orlando.
Since being founded in 2008, Iron Galaxy is hailed as the "second largest independent video game developer in America." The studio has shipped over 65 titles across 10 platforms and with about 20 different industry partners. There are over 250 employees currently working at the two existing offices.
