Description
Roll7 is a BAFTA and multi-award-winning Independent Studio based in London, UK. Its founders; Simon, John and Tom have a background in Education, Music and Creative Multimedia – having founded the pioneering youth education company; RollingSound.
Between 2008-2013, Roll7 worked as a gun-for-hire studio on original IP and marketing projects for a number of clients, including Channel 4, The Home Office, Lloyds Banks and NeuroSky. During this time, the team also created several innovative prototypes.
In 2013, Roll7 pivoted to focus entirely on developing and exploring its own original IP. From a small studio in Deptford in south-east London, the team worked tirelessly to develop 3 original titles over 3 years; OlliOlli, NOT A HERO and OlliOlli2: Welcome to Olliwood. With over 75 Awards and Nominations, the OlliOlli series has over 3 million players across 12 platforms and remains Roll7’s most successful IP to date.
In 2016, Roll7 moved its operations from a physical office into the cloud and developed a unique distributed production model, scaling up to over 30 people for the critically acclaimed, and multi-award nominated multiplayer title – Laser League.
Roll7 remains one of the UK’s most consistent and pioneering studios, the team are working quietly away on their next future classic title. Watch this space.
