The festival, which you may be familiar with at The Game Awards, will be hosted to give visibility to titles that were scheduled to be showcased at GDC, but won’t get that spotlight as the event has been canceled due to the Coronavirus pandemic.

The festival promises over 40 free demos on Steam, giving you a chance to give. This is a much larger number compared to the 14 that were showcased last year.

The event will continue until March 23.

Incidentally, The Game Awards host Geoff Keighley also mentioned that this isn’t the only Game Festival we can expect, and that more will come throughout the year, providing us with content that we can enjoy at home.

Considering that this edition is defined “spring,” it’s very possible that it’ll become a seasonal event, even if that hasn’t been confirmed just yet. We also don’t know specifically which games will be featured.

We'll have more editions of the Festival throughout the year to connect gamers around the world to content you can play at home. Stay tuned for more details! And we're working hard to make the Festival available on more platforms too.

Proud weeb hailing from sunny (not as much as people think) Italy and long-standing gamer since the age of Mattel Intellivision and Sinclair ZX Spectrum. Definitely a multi-platform gamer, he still holds the old dear PC nearest to his heart, while not disregarding any console on the market. RPGs (of any nationality), MMORPGs, and visual novels are his daily bread, but he enjoys almost every other genre, prominently racing simulators, action and sandbox games. He is also one of the few surviving fans on Earth of the flight simulator genre.
