Cloud Imperium Games Montréal, also known as Jeux Cloud Imperium 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 subsidiary of Cloud Imperium Games Ltd.<ref>Jeux Cloud Imperium Montréal, registre des entreprises, opengovca</ref><ref>Overview, linkedin</ref>

The Montreal studio takes care of a large part of the entire online aspect.<ref name=":5" />

History

Cloud Imperium Games Montreal was created on 2023-05-19 as 9491-4561 Québec Inc, seemingly for the purpose of acquiring Turbulent Media Inc, with which it merged on 2023-07-02.

On 2025-08-14 part of it becomes CIG Montréal.


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

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">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">Deux entités, deux missions, une passion commune, linkedin post, 28 August 2025</ref><ref>Turbulent rejoint Cloud Imperium Games, Benoit et Marc, Medium.com, 2023-07-13</ref><ref>Template:Cite RSI</ref><ref name=":5" /><ref>Deux entités, deux missions, une passion commune, linkedin post, 28 August 2025</ref><ref>Le studio web Turbulent devient Cloud Imperium Games Montréal, lapresse.ca, 23rd August 2025</ref>

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">Le studio web Turbulent devient Cloud Imperium Games Montréal, lapresse.ca, 22 août 2025</ref>

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" />

Each year CIG Montréal gets mandates totalling 25 millions $ US from CIG.<ref>Cloud Imperium Games Montréal : Plusieurs Québécois s’illustrent à la haute direction internationale, cine-techno.com, 21 août 2025</ref>
