Submissions are open!

Day of the Devs The Game Awards Digital Showcase (2025)

We are once again on the hunt for the most delightful, surprising, and downright cooooooool games to feature in our winter showcase. Developers interested in submitting their games can apply through the form below, from now until September 29. Games and developers from all backgrounds are encouraged to submit.

Submit your game

How do we select games?

Games are selected by a team of industry experts and professionals based on a mysterious algorithm that factors in:

  • What is new and exciting about the game?
  • Does the game studio have a diverse background and/or unique perspective?
  • Completeness and playability of the game
  • It is ideal for games to be playable in full or demo at the time of submission. (It does NOT need to be a publicly playable build, so it’s ok if it’s not perfectly polished.)
  • Release Date – Even if it’s vague or in the faroff future
  • Has the game been showcased elsewhere?
  • Is the team able to provide assets in time for the showcase deadlines?

What is the process?

We will notify selected applicants and provide an Asset Submission Form.

If you are not selected, do not despair! We will keep you in mind for future opportunities.

If selected, fill out the Asset Submission Form, including below. Note: Technical requirements and other specifics are noted on the form.
