Showcase & Event DetailsWhere to watch:Coffee Stain Studios YTCoffee Stain North YTShe Was Such A Good Horse YTWhen to watch: September 29, 2026 @ 19:00 CEST / 18:00 GMT / 13:00 EDT / 10:00 PDT!What is this?!The Big Break Showcase is a new digital showcase built around a simple idea and a frankly unearned amount of confidence: use the reach of established, successful indie studios and publishers to give unpublished and emerging developers the kind of stage that's increasingly hard to come by. While, conveniently, promoting their own biggest upcoming news.Everyone wins, right!?Starting with no plan and zero clue what we were doing, we actually managed to gather a band of fellow merry adventurers to turn this into more than just a stupid idea. Now it’s a stupid idea with FRIENDS! Somehow it became a real show in the process. We’re honestly as surprised as you.During the showcase, you’re going to get a deluge of trailers, interviews, dev updates, and flashing lights across more than 40 different titles from the likes of Ghost Ship, Kinetic Publishing, Pugstorm, Raw Fury, Stunlock Studios, and a veritable brewing pot of new teams emerging onto the scene with their first games.Oh, and us. Coffee Stain’s various studios will also have shinies to share. For example, Goat Simulator doing an interview in a weird place, ensuring the important details of their announcements are garbled by wind and background noise. Satisfactory revealing too much before we were able to silence them. Ghost Ship brought a lot of rocks with their games, and a few stones too.There is even something about robot vacuums. And that’s just what we can say without breaking embargoes!Other things you might want to knowWin Free Stuff! There will be giveaways during the Premiere, so get in the chat and watch live. The Coffee Stain team will literally be throwing games at you, both visually and code-ily.
