Press release:
TOKYO – Sept. 21, 2023.
TOKYO INDIE GAMES SUMMIT, the digital and in-person Japanese event showcasing developers and indie games from both local talent and around the world, returns to Kichijōji for its second annual iteration on Saturday, March 2 and Sunday, March 3, 2024.

Submissions of games for both in-person booths and remote exhibitor opportunities are now open until December 4th, 2023. All developers are encouraged to submit their work – be it unannounced titles, games in Early Access, released titles with upcoming DLC or just games looking to join the Tokyo INDIE GAMES SUMMIT Steam sale.

Sponsorship opportunities, including booths and in-person as well as digital logo placement options at multiple support levels are available. For more information, contact the TOKYO INDIE GAMES SUMMIT administrative office.

TOKYO INDIE GAMES SUMMIT’s debut event showcased more than 80 titles including favorite titles like Meg’s Monster, the adorable adventure RPG developed by Odencat, and Nyaaaanvy, the physics-based 3D feline fighter developed by Team DigitalMind.

Now returning for its second year, developers and publishers can display their latest works to both local and worldwide fans, content creators, and industry peers over the course of a two-day celebration, including a day for the general public to experience the latest indies.

TOKYO INDIE GAMES SUMMIT continues to serve as a catalyst for artistic collaboration. Returning to the vibrant, art-centric city of Kichijoji, the event also celebrates other creative disciplines with the latest anime, music, and manga on display.

“The indie gaming and art space are intertwined, and it’s been our goal to connect these communities under one roof for a celebration of both disciplines,” said Azusa Kawamura, member of the TOKYO INDIE GAMES SUMMIT Organizing Committee.

“Last year’s event was met with great fanfare, and we are using that momentum to increase our offerings to both communities. We have exciting things in store coming this March, and look forward to reviewing this year’s submissions!”
