The BitSummit Executive Committee has announced the official selection titles, key amenities, and merchandise area information for 'BitSummit PUNCH,' an indie game event taking place at Miyako Messe in Kyoto from May 22 to 24.
The event will feature 'Official Selection' titles chosen through a rigorous screening process. The lineup includes highly anticipated global titles such as 'ANTONBLAST' (Summitsphere) and 'City of None' (Extremely OK Games). Works from Korean developers, including 'Room 502' (LOTS), 'Light Odyssey' (SSUN GAMES), 'Rhythm Hotel' (SyncArc-Studio), and 'Kitchen of Abyss' (Pico Games), have also been named to the list.
The exhibition will span the first and third floors of Miyako Messe, with dedicated food and merchandise areas for attendee convenience.
