The Game Expo (TGX) is a convention celebrating gaming culture, creativity, and community, featuring tournaments, freeplay gaming, cosplay, artist alleys, and meet-and-greets with content creators and personalities. Held annually, it offers activities across various gaming aspects, from competitive esports and tabletop games to showcases of new indie titles and a high-score arcade, all guided by its core values of competition, community, and creativity.
Established in late-2012, BitSummit was founded with the goal of giving Japanese independent game makers a chance to show their games to the world, and we succeeded, growing from a small, industry-only event for around 200 people in 2013, to a groundbreaking festival that held court to over 11,000 people in 2018. Bolstered by keynotes from industry veterans like Shuhei Yoshida (Sony Interactive Entertainment), Suehiro Tanaka (White Owls), Atsushi Inaba & Hideki Kamia (Platinum Games), and Tetsuya Mizuguchi (Enhance Games), as well as support from leading industry companies like Sony, Nintendo, Microsoft, and Valve, BitSummit has established itself as a leading venue in which indie developers can showcase their talents for the world to see.
