Wales in Games

Make it a #Welsh Halloween with these 5 games! Withering Realms - @moonlessformless.bsky.social The Victor Initiative - @spacepiano.bsky.social Hungry Horrors - @clumsybearstudio.com She's Leaving Silent Hill: Townfall - @konamina.bsky.social Nos Galan Gaeaf Hapus! Happy Halloween! 🎃

#FolkloreSunday In early Welsh literature, the white-furred, red-eared Cŵn Annwn are the hunting dogs of the Welsh Otherworld of Annwn, running ahead of their lords, Arawn and Gwyn ap Nudd.

#ScreenShotSaturday Such a calm, pastoral shot across the fields of Dyfed... That little whisp of dark, magical looking mist creeping along the stream bed couldn't possibly be anything to worry about, right?? The first hints of the magical curse about to befall Pryderi's lands begin to manifest!

Horror RPG #WitheringRealms from @moonlessformless.bsky.social is set in #Wales and full of Welsh references. #Welsh place names, references to Welsh mythical creatures and historical figures, enemies that speak Cymraeg, and more. Add Withering Realms to your plans this Halloween!

This looks incredible. welsh bloodborne! Welsh Bloodborne! WELSH BLOODBORNE!

Nine #Welsh game studios attended Tokyo Game Show to showcase their upcoming projects last month. I reached out to them to hear how it all went. Visit the full article at WalesInGames.com to read their thoughts! Diolch / Thank you to all I spoke to! walesingames.com/2026/10/15/w...

After 2,5 years of development Hungry Horrors is out now on Steam. Thank you to everyone who supported us on this journey, and now finder crossed that Steam gods gives us any visibility on the insanly crowded market. If you want to help us out, buy it, play it, share it, stream it, review it.

Did Ben Starr really have to eat the multiplicative banana..? A clip from our chat, with Jack giving more context for one of the funniest moments in The Victor Initiative! youtube.com/shorts/wYRQE...

Had a great little chat again with @spacepiano.bsky.social, discussing the #Welsh aspects of The Victor Initiative - a horror game set in Eryri - plus his new game projects. Diolch yn fawr, Jack! www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Ni5...

It was a pleasure to contribute to this BBC Wales article on the "untapped potential" of Welsh mythology and folklore in video games. Diolch / Thank you to Oscar Edwards for reaching out and a lovely chat! www.bbc.com/news/article...

From the creator of Welsh horror game The Victor Initiative comes Voidside: Order. This will be one to watch! Learn more about Spacepiano's new game here: walesingames.com/2026/10/07/s...

Destroy a reality threatening regime. (And look cool while doing it.) You can wishlist Voidside: Order now on Steam!! Thank you so much to @samlakewrites.bsky.social for agreeing to cameo! More will follow. Stay tuned! #gaming #newgame #voidsideorder #indiegame #indiedev

Planted! Combat Gardening is out this month... 🎉 Consider giving it a WISHLIST - hopefully it can become part of the rotation of games you play with ya mates! ⚔️🥕🧅🫜💣 #indiedev #indiegame #gametrailer

#ScreenshotSaturday There are a lot of different ways to build a level... For this kind of natural environment, I tend to layer it 'bottom up' - after sculpting the terrain, I work from ground texture, to floor cover, to tree canopy, ending with the lighting and postfx pass.

#Welsh references are aplenty in @spacepiano.bsky.social's The Victor Initiative. This horror game set in Eryri, north #Wales features mythical beings, Cymraeg-based number puzzles, and Welsh acting talent that includes @tobias-weatherburn.co.uk, @jackayres71.bsky.social and @osianllew.bsky.social.

Really happy to see @caijonesaudio.bsky.social and his team's work on Bus Bound's Welsh localisation get the attention it deserves!

Two indie devs are making a card game where you don't fight monsters, you feed them. 🍲 Every dish is a real British & Irish recipe 👹 Every monster comes from actual folklore 🐱 A sarcastic cat judges your every move It's called Hungry Horrors. Would you play this?

Withering Realms has met its EA sales goals, and the path to full release in Q2 2027 is clear. New friends, new talismans, and some strange and unexpected things are coming during Early Access thanks to everyone's feedback. Full details here: store.steampowered.com/news/app/344...

I’ll be reaching out to as many Welsh game devs as I can this coming week, but if you haven’t heard from me yet and were at TGS, please drop me a message! Diolch!

To commemorate the collaboration between Pokémon and the ESA, a special Pikachu plush was sent to the International Space Station from April 11th through June 17th What a picture. Absolutely stunning

Thank you so much to everyone who played Alawon at Tokyo game show! Sincere apologies to those who couldn't try it because I only had 1 station. I hope you'll look forward to the demo release later this year🙏

The only people claiming AI is inevitable in gamedev are those that value how cheap and fast a game can be made, above all else. I value quality. Games made with passion and soul. AI is not inevitable. Don't let the bastards grind you down.

I spoke to #BusBound sound designer @caijonesaudio.bsky.social to learn about how the biggest ever #Welsh language localisation in a video game came to be. It was a huge pleasure to chat to Cai about the immense work that went into this project. Diolch yn fawr, Cai! www.youtube.com/watch?v=PagR...

If you are a #Welsh game developer at the Tokyo Game Show, please reach out! I'd love to put an article together highlighting the games Welsh devs are working on and demonstrating at TGS once the event is over. Diolch!

I wonder what kind of Welsh representation we can expect to see in GTA6... GTA has always been a parody and not afraid to run stereotypes into the ground, but it would be nice to get a decent Welsh character or two in such a high-profile game. Wishful thinking, perhaps 😅

And, of course, the obligatory link to see more... :) store.steampowered.com/app/3067260/Tales_from_the_Mabinogion/

A perfect view of Castle Arberth, standing strong above the Autumn forest... :) I know, I know, I've got a game to finish, I should be working instead of flying around taking random screenshots... But the game world is just too lovely not to share, even if I do say so myself!

"Will I have heard you in anything, Osian?" There's every chance you have! I've been in: - stillalive Studios' Bus Bound - The Victor Initiative - Transport For Wales' "Big Days Out" campaign - Various Welsh Gov. projects - Boundless Studios' "Peredur's Journey/Taith Peredur"
