Immigration routes for game developers
Game studios in the UK (under the Video Games Tax Relief regime), Canada (Quebec and BC subsidies), Germany, and Australia hold sponsor licences and recruit internationally. Routes follow standard tech profiles — UK Skilled Worker, US H-1B (cap-exposed), Canada Global Talent Stream (LMIA-exempt for NOC 21232), and Germany EU Blue Card. Senior creative leads may qualify for endorsed talent visas (UK Global Talent — digital tech).
