Rockstar Games has an office in Madrid, a job listing reveals
A Rockstar listing for a communications manager on its Iberia marketing team, “in the heart of Madrid,” covers campaigns for Spain and Latin America. What we know.
Rockstar Games has a presence in Spain, and a job listing has put it in writing. In mid-April 2026, Rockstar's careers site posted a Communications Manager role on its Iberia Marketing team: a full-time, permanent position "based out of Rockstar's office in the heart of Madrid." Rockstar hasn't made any announcement, but the listing, now closed, makes it fairly clear what that team does.
What the Madrid team does
According to the listing, the Iberia Marketing team:
- Develops and executes all go-to-market campaigns for Rockstar's titles in Iberia.
- Handles asset localization, packaging, social media, events, promotions and retail.
- Manages the Rockstar Games brand in Iberia and makes sure its guidelines are followed across every channel.
- Works with Rockstar's global publishing team, including on marketing for its live service games, GTA Online and Red Dead Online.
The role itself would help manage and launch projects across Iberia and Latin America: providing local insight on press and social media, writing press releases, building media relationships and coordinating local agencies.
Why it matters now
The listing doesn't name any specific game, but the timing speaks for itself: with GTA 6 around the corner, Rockstar is building up a team dedicated to Spanish- and Portuguese-speaking markets. Historically, the company has run its communications out of New York and Edinburgh, in many markets doing little more than translating trailers and press releases.
Update: the Spanish office in action
In late September, streamer IlloJuan said Rockstar had reached out through its Spanish office, relaying a warning from the New York legal team about a mod using AI-cloned voices in a GTA San Andreas series. It's the first time that Spanish presence has been seen acting in public.
Our take
Rockstar having a team dedicated to Spain and Latin America is good news for players in the region: closer ties with local press and community, more events and campaigns made for this audience rather than simple translations. With the most anticipated game of the decade about to launch, the Spanish-speaking market matters more than ever.
