VC Austin is all about community.
Our Austin studio works on almost everything we’ve got: NBA 2K, WWE 2K, LEGO 2K Drive, and other projects that help propel the company forward. And when the team steps outside the office, they refocus their talent and abilities on giving back to the community. Whether it’s their twice-yearly partnerships with the Austin Parks Department, volunteering at the Austin Rabbit Rescue, or raising money for Extra Life, this is a group that cares deeply about the place they call home.
WORKING IN AUSTIN
The VC Austin studio is located in The Domain, an area of the city that’s famously known for its walking lifestyle, lack of traffic, commitment to accessibility, and massive array of things to do. The office also quite literally opens into the Rock Rose district, which has unparalleled access to renowned restaurants, clubs, art and music.
Our office space is modern, and hosts a variety of events ranging from launch parties and holiday celebrations to insightful seminars with guest speakers from our industry and beyond.
LIVING IN AUSTIN
Known for its diverse live music scene, numerous watering holes, world-famous festivals and events, and relaxing outdoor activities, it’s no wonder Austin has quickly grown into one of the 10 biggest cities in America. VC Austin is located in the heart of it all, with something for everyone around every corner.
South by Southwest is one of the world’s premiere showcases for art, technology, film, music and interactive media. As a film festival, SXSW is considered one of the most important and influential in the world. People from all across the globe descend on Austin to take in this unique combination of creativity and technology.
Get your competitive fix at Q2 Stadium—a quick 15-minute drive from the VC Austin office —where Austin FC challenges teams from around the MLS on the pitch.
Alongside its technical prowess, Austin boasts some beautiful rivers, lakes, and trails as well. Lady Bird Lake flows through downtown Austin and is an excellent place to paddleboard, kayak, or just relax on the shore.
