Game Designer Duties & Salary in New Zealand

A game designer in New Zealand is a key player in crafting interactive experiences in a land of stunning landscapes and rich indigenous culture. With cities like Auckland and Wellington as creative hubs, game designers draw inspiration from the country's Maori heritage and breathtaking natural beauty. New Zealand's diverse geography, from lush forests to pristine beaches, might find its way into game aesthetics and narratives.

The main duties of a game designer involve developing game concepts, designing gameplay mechanics, creating levels, and collaborating with artists and programmers. Maori mythology and cultural elements might shape game narratives, adding an authentic and unique touch.

Key skills for game designers in New Zealand encompass proficiency in game development tools, creative problem-solving, teamwork, and adaptability to different gaming genres and platforms. Understanding the New Zealand gaming market and player preferences can be an advantage.

Experience-wise, a relevant degree in game design, computer science, or related fields is commonly preferred. Practical involvement in indie game development, internships, or personal projects demonstrates a candidate's hands-on skills.

In New Zealand, game designers can expect an annual salary range of NZD 55,000 to NZD 85,000, translating to an hourly rate of approximately NZD 27.5 to NZD 42.5.

* Please note that the salary figures may vary based on experience & location. Salary figures & rate ranges last updated Nov 2023.
