The Very Big Indie Pitch (Mobile+PC+Console Edition) at Pocket Gamer Connects Summit Korea 2025

Welcome to the freshest Very Big Indie Pitch on offer.

The Pocket Gamer Connects conference series is heading to Korea for the first time and we can’t wait to host our Very Big Indie Pitch at this thrilling location to showcase all of the regional talent.

This unique speed dating format gives each developer five minutes (including Q&A) with each panel of experts, meaning all entrants will get feedback in real-time and post-event via email too. Think speed-dating for developers and experts, and you get the idea.

That’s not all though, as the top three will also be interviewed and get editorial coverage in PocketGamer.biz, PCGamesInsider, The Virtual Report and beyond, making this a great chance to get you, your studio and your game played by the world. There’s also free tickets and event space at a future Pocket Gamer Connects up for grabs to the winner too.

What? How? Who?

How it’ll work couldn’t be simpler. We’re inviting indie developers of all shapes and sizes along in order to pitch their games to our teams of tame journalists.

Approximately 15 teams will run the gauntlet, giving their all in quickfire 5-minute pitches to demonstrate that their title is worthy of the Big Indie Pitch crown and coverage in the games media.
