SUMMARY:Replaying Japan 2026
DESCRIPTION:Replaying Japan\, hosted by Nagoya Zokei University\, is organized in collaboration with the Ritsumeikan Center for Game Studies\, the University of Alberta\, the University of Delaware\, Bath Spa University\, Seijoh University\, DiGRA Japan\, and Liege Game Lab. This conference focuses broadly on Japanese game culture\, education\, and industry. It aims to bring together a wide range of researchers and creators from many different countries to present and exchange their work.\n\nThe main theme of the conference this year will be “Local Communities\, Digital Communities and Video Games in Japan.” With the recent interest in the Metaverse and the continuing popularity of titles with strong social elements\, digital games are seen more and more as social platforms in their own rights — virtual meeting spaces for digital communities. At the same time\, from department store rooftop amusement parks and pachinko parlours\, to living room and portable consoles\, the history of gaming in Japan is inextricably tied with the changing social fabric of local communities.\n\nVisit the News and Event Calendar for more events like Replaying Japan 2026.

SUMMARY:PAX West 2026
DESCRIPTION:PAX West 2026 is a celebration of gaming and gaming culture featuring thought-provoking panels\, a massive expo hall filled with the best publishers and studios\, new game demos\, musical performances\, tournaments\, and a community experience unlike any other.\n\nFrom PAX: Over the years\, PAX has evolved with the times: embracing the cutting edge of technology with VR Freeplay\, reaching out across the full spectrum of gamers via our Diversity Lounge\, and building up immense game libraries for every genre and platform. Despite this\, we’ve stayed true to our roots and a pretty surprising amount of what makes PAX what it is today existed way back in 2004. Freeplay\, Tournaments\, Enforcers\, Expo Hall\, Concerts\, Panels\, and the Omegathon…it was all there.  Just\, y’know\, on a much different scale.\n\nPAX West is the original. The one that started it all. The PAX before all other PAX’s.  It may have technically started in Bellevue\, just across a bridge to the east\, and it may have technically used a different name in the very beginnings\, but make no mistake. PAX West is the Original Recipe\, and we’ve stayed true to all those herbs and spices all these years later.\n\nVisit the News and Event Calendar for more events like PAX West 2026.

SUMMARY:Indie Rodeo 2026
DESCRIPTION:From Indie Rodeo: Indie Rodeo is a two-day conference for game makers\, riding into Calgary\, Alberta\, September 11–12\, 2026.\n\nWe bring together the people who actually make games\, from developers and publishers to artists\, writers\, and everyone in between. This conference is a place to gather and trade stories\, ideas and the lessons that never make the trailer.\n\nNo sales pitches. No corporate keynotes.\nJust honest talks\, real conversations and people who’d rather create than network.\n\nOver two days\, speakers from across the industry dig into the stuff that’s truly hard: creativity and tech\, publishing and funding\, leadership\, marketing and staying alive long enough to ship a finished product… and where this whole medium goes next.\n\nYour pass also includes access to the Game Business Bootcamp with Calgary Games Kiln\, providing a practical run through of publishing\, funding\, discoverability and what it takes to run a studio that lasts.\n\nBetween sessions\, the Game Showcase puts playable indie games in your hands\, Alberta-grown and trail-hardened\, with a few from further out. Food trucks will also be on site both days to help fuel you and your creativity.\n\nWhen the talks end\, the community takes over at an evening Afterparty. Then\, the Gamejam saddles up: assemble a posse\, build something new and ride out with something to show for it.\n\nFirst game or fifth studio\, this is your kind of rodeo.\n\nVisit our Industry News and the Event Calendar for more events like Indie Rodeo 2026.
