The Indie Game Awards (IGAs), an inaugural awards-only event dedicated to celebrating indie gaming excellence, is set to take place on December 19th, 2024. The IGAs will honor outstanding achievements in various categories, such as innovation, storytelling, and artistry, within the indie scene.

Presenters for the ceremony include representatives from Black Salt Games, Raw Fury, Wishes Unlimited, Yacht Club Games, Toge Productions, and InnerSloth.

The judging committee includes Giant Bomb, IGDA, Wanderbots, AshSaidHi, Playcrafting, and others.

The IGAs will be live-streamed on IGN.com, IGN and Six One Indie YouTube channels, the official IGAs website, and a dedicated Steam event page from December 19th-23rd. Replays will be available on the official IGAs website and YouTube via IGN and Six One Indie.

The 2024 IGA Game of the Year nominees include 1000xRESIST, Animal Well, ARCO, Balatro, Crypt Custodian, Lorlei and the Laser Eyes, Mouthwashing, Neva, Nine Sols, and UFO 50.
