TOKYO — Feb. 19th, 2024.
INDIE Live Expo, Japan’s premiere online digital showcase series connecting indie game fans all over the world, announces the date of their first 2024 event taking place on Saturday, May 25th, 2024.

With more than 10 million views during INDIE Live Expo Winter 2023, and 98.7 million views since the series inception in 2020, this May’s upcoming showcase marks the 10th ever INDIE Live event, commemorated by an all-new logo.

Serving as a gateway between indie scenes across the globe, INDIE Live Expo offers English, Japanese, and Chinese broadcasts. Viewers can tune in for the return of the rapid-fire “INDIE Waves” segment showcasing dozens of short-form content updates across a plethora of titles, and witness a deep dive into a new local indie scene with the return of “Indie Studios Around the World”.

Game submissions for indie developers and publishers are now open until Monday, March 11th, 7:00 PM PDT / 10:00 PM EST. Registration is free for up to one title per organization, be it a reveal of a brand new project, news for an upcoming game, major updates for previously released works, or a sale. Sponsorship opportunities are also available.

“Our favorite time of year is when submissions open!” Said Ryuta Konuma, Founder and CEO, Ryu’s Office.

“The possibilities within indie gaming are truly endless, which was the main inspiration behind our new logo. Every year we are wowed by such innovative indies that we could have never imagined. Many thanks to our supporters who make our show possible every year!”
