We are delighted to announce that IndieGames will be participating in the Magnificon Expo 2025 convention, which will take place in Krakow from May 23rd to 25th. This festival, which has been bringing together enthusiasts of Japanese pop culture for more than 20 years, including anime, board games, manga, music, and, of course, video games, attracts fans from all over Poland and foreign guests to the former Polish capital for a weekend full of panel discussions, workshops, competitions, and culinary activities.

The goal of Magnificon Expo is not only to promote Japanese traditions, trends, and artworks but also to shape the Polish cultural scene in general. Although video games are not the main focus, the festival offers a unique insight into the world of gaming through conferences and panel discussions about specific titles and franchises, their cultural context, and the gaming industry as a whole.

As usual, visitors can visit themed zones dedicated to various types of games during the event. There will be the CFA Gaming Zone with new Xbox premieres (DOOM: The Dark Ages, South of Midnight, Avowed), Slayer Bites snacks, and a photo opportunity with the Duchess from Elden Ring: Nightreign. Another attraction will be Project Genshin, an initiative that brings together fans of the open-world RPG of the same name. In this section, they will create a real Genshin village with characteristic objects, quests, and locations directly from the game. Additionally, there will be a zone filled with rhythmic games, where visitors can choose between different genres.
