Catalogue Meet the Games & Studios

What it means to develop games and studios catalogues

One of the first games registered in Portugal was “Bala”, a game by developer “Zé Oliveira” and published by ZarSoft in 1982 for the Sinclair ZX81. Since then we’ve leapt forward and each new game release was achieved by those willing to be a part of a growing industry where there was nothing like it In time the community of videogames grew, from developers to journalists to historians and gamers. The will to never stand down and to strive for a better tomorrow has brought us to where we are today.

Following in the footsteps of the Portugal Studios Spotlight that premiered in Game Dev Camp in 2014, the Spotlight of Portuguese Games catalog is a testimony of the games that have launched in 2022 or that where in development during that year. All the games and studios present in the catalog answered our open call, and we’re sure there are even more projects in production. We hope to see you in the next, but for now take a look at this record of the state of the art in the portuguese videogame industry.
