Community Manager (MMORPG)

About Us Step into the world of Soulbound, a charming pixel-art MMORPG where your adventures unfold through exploration, crafting, home-building, guild camaraderie, and fun with friends. Imagine the nostalgic social connection of classic MMOs blended with the warm embrace of modern cozy gaming, all set in a meticulously handcrafted pixel-art universe. Our passionate indie team of 20+ is gearing up for a new launch. We’re not your typical indie studio, we move quickly, place immense trust in our team, and value what you create far more than your resume.

The Role We’re searching for a community champion to not just manage but ignite and nurture our player community from scratch. You’ll be the vibrant, welcoming face of Soulbound across Discord, TikTok, Twitter/X, Reddit, YouTube, Instagram, and Steam. You will work the team to develop our strategy and campaigns, and bring those plans to life: sharing compelling content, hosting exciting events, engaging with players, reaching out to influencers, and creating an unforgettable experience where everyone feels genuinely connected to this once-in-a-generation opportunity to be part of an enduring MMO as it opens its doors.

This is a dynamic, hands-on role where you might find yourself logged into Discord at 9pm, spotlighting a stunning player-built home because you can’t wait to celebrate creativity in real-time.
