BitSummit 2023 announces a record number of attendees
The organizers claim that BitSummit, Japan's leading indie games expo, achieved a record attendance in 2023.
The organizers announced that BitSummit Let's Go!!, held at its usual venue, Kangyokan Miyakomesse in Kyoto earlier this month, attracted over 23,700 visitors, making it the highest attendance in the event's history.
It was the first fully in-person show for BitSummit since before the pandemic. In 2019, the event saw around 17,000 attendees.
BitSummit Let's Go!! featured around 100 games from more than 20 countries.
Established in late 2012, BitSummit was originally created to give Japanese independent game developers a platform to showcase their projects to the world.
The event is organized by Japan Independent Games Aggregate (JIGA) - Q-Games Ltd, Skeleton Crew Studios, Pygmy Studio Co Ltd, and BlackSheep.
BitSummit 2024 will take place over three days - July 19, 20, and 21.
