The Tokyo Game Show (TGS) 2021 kicks off next week, and Brazil Games is coming prepared to show off plenty of exciting indie titles from their roster of talented studios. TGS is a four-day event that takes place from September 30 to October 3 and will feature a slew of game announcements and presentations from Japanese developers and publishers as well as those from other parts of the world. The Brazil Games delegation will bring over 40 game studios to the event, including a MeetToMatchTokyo delegation, with the goal of finding new opportunities to expand its reach further into the international games market as well as showcasing the incredible work being done in Latin America’s largest video game market.
Brazil Games (the Brazilian Games Export Program) is a partnership between Abragames – Brazilian Games Companies Association, and Apex-Brasil – Brazilian Trade and Investment Promotion Agency.
Of course, the best part about trade shows is the opportunity to go hands-on with the games. Brazil Games is proud to contribute six fantastic titles from some of their most talented indie studios to TGS’s Trial Play roster. Attendees of TGS are invited to free demos of the following games:
Tetragon(Cafundó Creative Studio) is a 2D puzzle game set in a world of shifting walls and unpredictable gravity. The free trial will be available on Steam.
Kukoos – Lost Pets(PETIT FABRIK) is a classic-feeling 3D platformer about saving brainwashed pets from an evil giant robot frog. The free trial will be available on Steam.
