<p><b>New page</b></p><div>[[File:Cloud Imperium Games Montreal.jpg|thumb|Cloud Imperium Games Montreal logo]]'''Cloud Imperium Games Montréal''' is a [[StarCitizen::Category:Video game development companies|video game development studio]] dedicated to ''[[StarCitizen:Star Citizen]]'' and ''[[StarCitizen:Squadron 42]]'' and is the Canadian division of [[StarCitizen:Cloud Imperium Games Ltd.|Cloud Imperium Games]].<ref>[https://www.linkedin.com/company/cloud-imperium-games-montreal/about/ Overview], linkedin</ref><br />
<br />
The Montreal studio takes care of a large part of the entire online aspect.<ref name=":5" /><br />
<br />
== History ==<br />
The studio emerges from [[StarCitizen:Turbulent]], which is better known for its technological solutions than for video games and which was acquired by CIG in 2023, <br />
<br />
Everything Turbulent did that is related to video games had to be supported by a strong brand that was immediately associated with that gaming identity, this motivated to rename part of the company.<ref name=":5">[https://www.lebetatesteur.ca/cloud-imperium-games-dans-les-coulisses-de-star-citizen/ Cloud Imperium Games – Behind the Scenes of Star Citizen], lebetatesteur.ca, September 5, 2025</ref> In August 2025, part of Turbulent became a creative agency retaining the Turbulent name, which is still very strong in the web world, while the section of Turbulent dedicated to the video game development of ''Star Citizen'' and ''Squadron 2'' becomes [[StarCitizen:Cloud Imperium Games Montréal]].<ref name=":0">[https://www.linkedin.com/posts/turbulentbycig_cloud-imperium-games-montreal-linkedin-activity-7366538380047822848-Tnp9?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop&rcm=ACoAAEgRAZUBJsBGrf8H43HSISTEzzuwe7rhDS4 Deux entités, deux missions, une passion commune], linkedin post, 28 August 2025</ref><ref>[https://medium.com/turbulent-fr/turbulent-rejoint-cloud-imperium-games-a14bac3ecba8 Turbulent rejoint Cloud Imperium Games], Benoit et Marc, Medium.com, 2023-07-13</ref><ref>{{Cite RSI|url=https://robertsspaceindustries.com/comm-link/transmission/19378-Turbulent-Joins-Cloud-Imperium-Games|text=Turbulent Joins Cloud Imperium Games|accessdate=2023-07-13}}</ref><ref name=":5" /><ref>[https://www.linkedin.com/posts/turbulentbycig_cloud-imperium-games-montreal-linkedin-activity-7366538380047822848-Tnp9?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop&rcm=ACoAAEgRAZUBJsBGrf8H43HSISTEzzuwe7rhDS4 Deux entités, deux missions, une passion commune], linkedin post, 28 August 2025</ref><ref>[https://www.lapresse.ca/affaires/entreprises/2025-08-22/jeu-video/le-studio-web-turbulent-devient-cloud-imperium-games-montreal.php Le studio web Turbulent devient Cloud Imperium Games Montréal], lapresse.ca, 23rd August 2025</ref><br />
<br />
CIG Montreal and Turbulent also use different logos. Branding the video game development pole with the CIG name which is known as a gaming company is to help distinguish the gaming development pole from the technological solutions Turbulent is known for, and thus is to help attract and recruit gamedevs.<ref name=":1">[https://www.lapresse.ca/affaires/entreprises/2025-08-22/jeu-video/le-studio-web-turbulent-devient-cloud-imperium-games-montreal.php Le studio web Turbulent devient Cloud Imperium Games Montréal], lapresse.ca, 22 août 2025</ref> <br />
<br />
As of 2025, CIG montreal seeks to number 150 employees: UI, UX, 3D developers who work on [[StarCitizen:ships]], characters, environments, but there is also have a constant demand for programming. CIG Montreal also has a team that's undergoing specific training in gameplay programming to strengthen everything related to ''core'' [[StarCitizen:MMO]] mechanics.<ref name=":5" /><ref name=":1" /><br />
<br />
Each year CIG Montréal gets mandates totalling 25 millions $ US from CIG.<ref>[https://cine-techno.com/wp/2025/08/21/cloud-imperium-games-montreal-plusieurs-quebecois-sillustrent-a-la-haute-direction-internationale/ Cloud Imperium Games Montréal : Plusieurs Québécois s’illustrent à la haute direction internationale], cine-techno.com, 21 août 2025</ref><br />
