thatgamecompany was founded in the Spring of 2006 by Jenova Chen and Kellee Santiago, two graduates of the University Southern California Interactive Media MFA program. They had worked on several projects together, including the multi-award winning student game, “Cloud,” and decided to continue working together on small, experimental games by forming a game studio that would focus on these projects. Upon graduating, they were offered a 3-game deal from Sony Computer Entertainment, LLC to develop games for the PlayStation Network.

thatgamecompany has been profiled for its innovations in game content and development by renowned media outlets such as Newsweek, National Public Radio, Good Morning America, and the Wall Street Journal. TGC was named one of Game Developer Magazine’s Top 20 Companies to Watch in 2011, and was most recently awarded the Los Angeles Business Journal Innovation Award.
