Like most fields, the salary depends on a lot of factors like :
- Location (For example, bay area salaries are about 20-30% higher than many other states)
- Scale of company (small company vs. big ones like EA or Rockstar)
- Your expertise and experience level
But, in general, the average salary for "game designer" ranges from approximately $44,238 per year for Entry Level Designer to $134,432 per year for Lead Developer.

It’s a good question, but it’s complicated. Salary ranges for game designers can vary dramatically depending on several factors.
Game designer salaries start around USD $50,000 annually for entry-level design positions. But they can grow to well over $100,000 per year for very senior designers or designers who are leading teams. And some companies pay their game designers even more – a lot more.
