What to look forward to at the Indie Game Utsav?

Supported by industry giants like Xbox, Xsolla, Specter, and Nodwin Gaming, Indie Game Utsav is set to shine a light on the rising stars of India’s gaming scene. In collaboration with the International Game Developers Association (IGDA) India, the festival aims to introduce India’s growing gaming community to locally developed, world-class games.

With over 132 million players on the Steam platform alone and PC gaming contributing a significant 22% of India’s total video game revenue, the Indie Game Utsav seeks to foster a culture of PC and console gaming in India while showcasing the immense potential of homegrown talent.

Founded by Avichal Singh, Indie Game Utsav is set to empower upcoming indie game developers. “Our goal is to pave the way for Indian indie games to achieve success,” says Avichal.

Akshat Rathee, co-founder of Nodwin Gaming, echoes this vision: “We started with a passion for PC gaming, and now supporting indie developers feels like coming full circle. Indie Game Utsav at Mumbai Comic Con is just the beginning. It’s a huge step toward making gaming more accessible and exciting for everyone.”

In addition to celebrating indie games, the event will connect Indian developers with international publishers such as Krafton, Garena, Epic Games, Xbox, and more. Digital meetings and matchmaking sessions will feature even more major names like Devolver Digital, RawFury, and Women in Games, offering further opportunities for collaboration and growth.
