Wie wat nieuwe, onafhankelijke spelletjes wil ontdekken, doet er goed aan langs te komen op Gamescom 2017. De volledige line-up van de zogenaamde ‘Indie Arena Booth’ is namelijk binnen, en die maakt één ding erg duidelijk: de indie-games zullen dit jaar niet ondervertegenwoordigd zijn op ’s wereld grootste game-evenement.
Vanuit de organisatie van Gamescom werd niet alleen een vlotte Indie Arena Booth trailer vrijgegeven, maar ook een compleet overzicht van alle games mét links naar meer beeldmateriaal van de indies.
Heb je dus een beetje belangstelling voor kleine(re) spellen uit de industrie, dan doe je er goed aan het onderstaande overzicht eens door te spitten. Of natuurlijk om het voor jezelf te gaan ervaren op Gamescom 2017, van 22 tot 26 augustus in Hal 10.1 van de Koelnmesse.
