ICHI Worldwide

Juggling a degree and a part-time gig at ICHI? Smashed it. A massive congratulations to our Junior Creative Strategist, Edward, for achieving a first-class degree in his BA (Hons) Esports Management course! Crushing a degree while excelling at work is no small feat, and Ed has been bringing his A-game to both. We couldn’t be prouder. We - and the rest of the gaming industry - are lucky to have you. 💜

Insights from some of the biggest names in gaming, the chance to speak with fantastic indies, and a spot of sunshine and ice cream... Develop:Brighton was back this week! Our very own Charlotte made her way there, catching up with friends across Keywords Studios and connecting with some of the brightest minds in the industry. There's nothing quite like a spot of networking to leave us feeling inspired, and we’re bringing back some fresh energy for our projects. 🙌 Next stop for team ICHI: gamescom.

Gaming isn’t just about entertainment anymore; for the gamers playing, it’s also about escapism, connection, and community.

This week marks seven incredible years of having our Creative Director Murdoch on Team ICHI. To show our appreciation, here are seven things the team have said they love about him... ➖ His passion and determination to deliver the very best creatives. ➖ His impeccable ‘hipster meets golf pro’ style. ➖ He gives a shit. ➖ He's an ace when it comes to music choice - it's really broad, weird, and eclectic. ➖ His very cool Harry Potter tattoo. ➖ He constantly progresses, grows, and delivers incredible work. ➖ And how could you not? This nicotine dream fiend is 20% Pret cold brew, 40% moustache, and 100% creative legend and leader. Murdoch embodies everything we stand for here at ICHI - expertise, creativity, and a drive to deliver only the best. Here’s to many more years of having you on team ICHI, Murdoch - with or without the moustache. 💜 #ICHIWorldwide

What’s a birthday without cake, balloons, and a bit of bubbly? Last week, we celebrated 15 years by throwing an office party for our ICHI family and some of our friends from Keywords Studios. 🥂🎂 Working on electrifying campaigns and powering up some of the world’s best-loved IPs is always an absolute joy, but it's definitely made even better when you're surrounded by an incredible team and supportive sister studios. Here's to the next 15 years of doing what we love with the people we love! 💜 #15YearsOfICHI

A timeless franchise. A much-anticipated PS5 title. Hours of stunning visuals. We're marking the one-year anniversary since the release of Final Fantasy XVI. And with its gripping narrative and immersive gameplay, we knew we had to deliver something special to showcase everything the game had to offer.   So, we're looking back at the Next Gen Immersion Trailer we crafted for PS5 and the sixteenth instalment in the Final Fantasy series. 👉 https://lnkd.in/ea9Bggwh

As we continue celebrating 15 incredible years of ICHI, we've been reflecting on ICHI’s beginnings, and recognising the diverse array of projects - and people - that have shaped our journey along the way. That's why we've asked our wonderful founder and a selection of ICHI’s past superstars to recall the standout marketing endeavours that have stuck with them, and have defined our legacy. Thank you to Liz Corless, Rhiannon Price, Lonnie Silberling, Samuel St.Leger, Helen Jackson, Tim Menko, and Frank Tamburin for you contributions to the article, and - of course - your contributions to ICHI. 💜 👉 https://lnkd.in/eUtt3-s6 #15YearsOfICHI

What happens when ICHI and Maverick Media get together after work? We take our creativity to the Warhammer battlefield, of course. ⚔️ We swapped keyboards for paintbrushes. We took our strategy from digital to tabletop. And we used our teamwork to conquer battles instead of campaigns. Check out some of the action and artistry from Kai, Joe, Ibby, Samad, Sam, and Simon! 👇
