A number of game publishers and developers have partnered up to announce a new streaming conference called the Guerrilla Collective, and it will be taking place from June 6th to June 8th. Despite the name Guerrilla Games has not been confirmed as a studio that will be taking part. This showcase is for independent groups to get together and reveal news about upcoming games including new titles, and it is all going to be hosted by Kinda Funny’s Greg Miller. Alongside the Guerrilla Collective there will be streams for Paradox Insider, The PC Gaming Show, and Futures Game Show.
According to the press release this is what to expect:
Starting on June 6, with an opening online press event at 1 p.m. ET/10 a.m. PT, continuing on June 7 with a second online press event, and finishing up June 8 with a day of programming that includes live gameplay demos and developer interviews.
The confirmed line up of studios and publishers taking part includes:
- 11 bit studios (credits include Frostpunk, This War of Mine)
- Another Indie (SIMULACRA 2, Yuppie Psycho)
- Coffee Stain Studios (Satisfactory, Deep Rock Galactic)
- Fellow Traveller (In Other Waters, Neo Cab)

That is not the final list, however. The organisers are looking for more developers to take part and have an open call so groups can pitch their projects. With all physical conferences cancelled we will be seeing many more digital showcases like this through the year. While many are anticipating news from Sony and Microsoft regarding more details about the next generation it is good to see an event that will highlight some of the independent studios.
