A Growing Celebration of East Asian Indie Games
EAIGC is a Steam event that connects indie developers across East Asia and introduces their games to players around the world. Through Steam, the official website, multilingual promotion, and creator collaborations, the event helps outstanding indie games reach a wider audience.
The first EAIGC featured 422 games from 12 East Asian regions and generated more than 3.15 million unique Steam impressions. This year, the event continues to grow with 550 featured indie games from across East Asia, with over 100 games offering playable demos or Steam playtests, giving players the chance to experience many upcoming titles before launch.
50+ Creators Streaming Live Throughout the Event
More than 50 streamers, VTubers, and gaming creators from across East Asia will showcase nearly 100 featured games during EAIGC. Players can watch these broadcasts on each creator’s own channel or directly on the official EAIGC Steam event page, where livestreams will be featured alongside the Steam sale.
Many participating creators will also host Steam game key giveaways, with keys provided by participating developers through the EAIGC creator program. Giveaway rules and participation details will vary by creator, so players are encouraged to check each creator’s channel for more information.
