Game Dev Heroes 2026

The Game Dev Heroes Awards celebrate the unsung heroes of the games industry and recognise the people working behind the scenes.

Nominated by developers and judged by developers and past winners, the event is designed to bring the industry together for a relaxed evening in Brighton.

The published schedule lists arrivals from 5:30pm, awards presentations from 6:30pm, and drinks and music afterwards.

The organisers note that admittance is strictly 18+ and that a selection of free refreshments will be available at the bar.
