This is more than just a conference; it’s a celebration of Aotearoa’s amazing game dev community. Our theme for this year is The People at the Heart of Games and is inspired by the well-known Māori proverb “He aha te mea nui o te ao? He tangata, he tangata, he tangata” (What is the most important thing in the world? It is people, it is people, it is people), emphasising the human side of game development.
It speaks to the importance of community, collaboration and the people who shape our industry - developers, storytellers, players, and cultural guardians.
We’ll have inspiring talks, engaging workshops, and vibrant panel discussions that highlight voices from all corners of our industry.
Whether you’re a veteran developer, an enthusiastic gamer, or just starting your journey, NZGDC 2025 is the perfect place to forge new friendships, exchange ideas, and ignite your creativity!
