The indie-centric Day of the Devs is approaching, providing a venue for smaller publishers to highlight their work. This portion of the Summer Game Fest frequently exceeds the main event in thrill and creativity. Mark June 6 on your calendars for this year’s occasion.
What to Anticipate at Day of the Devs

Another highlight is Outersloth’s “nightmarish life sim,” Neverway. The game presents an intriguing narrative: “Having left her dead-end job, Fiona begins anew on a farm and evolves into the immortal herald of a deceased god.” This unique premise is sure to immerse players in its special universe.
House House’s Big Walk
The creators behind the adored Untitled Goose Game, House House, are primed to unveil their latest project, Big Walk. This “cooperative online walker-talker” game emphasizes easygoing, collaborative gameplay. The studio states, “What we love most about playing online co-op games is when they provide just enough guidance for the group to maintain good momentum, while still being relaxed enough for you to simply enjoy your time with friends.” Look forward to a casual experience filled with quirky characters.
