Indie game fans won’t want to miss the second-ever Triple-I Initiative, a showcase that features updates, announcements, release dates, and new reveals from over 30 beloved indie studios. The Triple-I Initiative showcase will stream live tomorrow, April 10, at 9am Pacific/1pm Eastern on YouTube, Twitch, IGN, Gamespot, and Steam.
If you’re tired and/or cynical about sponsored advertisements and cringey hosts — the Triple-I Initiative will feature exactly none of that. Just 45 minutes of straight gameplay, developers, and announcements.
“Last year, being asked to participate in the Triple-i initiative was a great opportunity to reach new players,” said Stunlock Studios (V Rising). “Combining our efforts with many hugely inspirational and talented peer studios was too good to pass up, and coming back for another year was an easy choice.”
This year’s showcase promises 37 game announcements. Here is the full list of studios participating in the showcase:
- 11bit
- 91Act

Personally I’m excited about Ghost Ship Games (Deep Rock Galactic), Digital Sun (Moonlighter), Unfrozen (Iratus, and upcoming Heroes of Might and Magic: Olden Era), Amplitude (Endless series), and 11 bit Studios (Frostpunk, and upcoming The Alters).
The showcase will feature a post-show segment with deeper dives with developers on upcoming games. Plus, the Triple-I Initiative will kick off week-long sales on Steam, Epic, and Humble to support indie games.
Last year’s debut showcase featured V Rising, Risk of Rain 2, Slay the Spire 2, Palworld, and the reveal of The Rogue: Prince of Persia.
