Roll7: History and Key Facts

Rollingmedia Limited (trade name: Roll7) was a British video game developer based in London. Founded in 2008 by Simon Bennett, Tom Hegarty, and John Ribbins, the company initially developed educational games on a contract basis before shifting to original intellectual properties in 2012. Roll7's OlliOlli, first released in 2014 for the PlayStation Vita, became highly successful and landed the company a publishing deal. Roll7 later developed OlliOlli2: Welcome to Olliwood (2015), Not a Hero (2015), Laser League (2018), and Rollerdrome (2022). Since May 2015, all employees were remote workers. Roll7 became a subsidiary of Private Division since November 2021, until the studio's closure in 2024.
