20th Nov 2025

d3t is pleased to reveal that we have been announced as the winner of the Best Large Studio award at the 2025 Game Republic Awards.

Held at the WX in Wakefield, this year’s awards saw over 500 game developers, studio bosses, publishers, platform-holders, and investors come together to celebrate the significant contributions across the Northern games industry.

Nominations were reviewed by a judging panel, with the final decision going to writer, and games journalist for The Guardian, Keith Stewart.

When discussing d3t, Keith and the judging panel highlighted that when up against some of the big dogs of the UK game development scene, d3t managed to shine through and impress this year with its major co-development projects.

Speaking on the award, Louise Andrew, Head of Studio at d3t, said: “We are extremely proud that d3t has been announced as the winner of Best Large Studio at this year’s Game Republic Awards.

“Over this past year our team has worked on a wide variety of titles including EA SPORTS FC 26, Project Ire: A Prologue, King of Meat, FBC: Firebreak, and Mafia: The Old Country and this award is a true testament to each and every person at d3t. If it wasn’t for their passion, talent, and love for all things games, we would not be the studio that we are today – thank you to all of you!

“It is no secret that the industry is going through a less buoyant time currently, however, as we enter 2026, I am certain that we as a studio will continue to build on the successful foundations that this award has recognised.

“I would also like to thank the team at Game Republic not only for this award, but for the tireless work that they do to support and promote games studios across the North of England.”
