Ken Burgess has a strong background in the gaming industry, having studied media production and engineering at the OTH Amberg-Weiden in Germany. During his studies, he gained valuable experience through internships at Daedalic Entertainment and writing for M!Games, Germany’s oldest video game magazine and online publication. This allowed him to familiarize himself with the inner workings of a gaming company and the industry as a whole, participating in several events to conduct interviews, write articles, produce videos, and work as QA on his first titles.
In 2017, he joined GIANTS Software in Erlangen, Germany as a QA Analyst, where he further developed his skills in QA before taking on the role of QA Lead in 2018. He has since worked on several titles of the Farming Simulator franchise on all major platforms and has become an integral part of the team and company. His efforts have led to him taking on the role of Release Coordinator in 2022, where he now oversees the publishing process for all platforms, plans releases with the developers, and ensures that the next Farming Simulator release is the best one yet.
