UKIE Wants to Attract Scottish Game Devs With Its Own Organization
The British industry association UKIE has launched Interactive Entertainment Scotland (ies), its own organization for the Scottish gaming industry. The industry has grown significantly in recent years and has organized itself with the Scottish Game Developers Organization.
Grand Theft Auto is probably the best-known game IP to come out of the Scottish gaming industry, even though GTA VI, which will be released in 2026, will not be produced exclusively in Scotland, just like its predecessors.Rockstar Games
UKIE's initiative to give Scottish companies in the British gaming industry their own home with Interactive Entertainment Scotland (IES) probably also has strategic reasons. In any case, the founding of IES represents a paradigm shift on the part of UKIE and thus a further change that has been heralded since the appointment of CEO Nick Poole around 1.5 years ago.
