Indie developers announced The Triple-i Initiative, a 45-minute showcase event featuring world premieres, exclusive gameplay, demos and awards from some of the best independent game creators. It will take place on April 10th at 10:00 AM PT / 1:00 PM ET / 6:00 PM CET. You'll be able to watch it on YouTube, Twitch, bilibili, IGN, and Steam.

The showcase will include “major announcements and reveals” for more than 30 games from studios such as Evil Empire (Dead Cells), Mega Crit (Slay the Spire), Red Hook Studios (Darkest Dungeon), Heart Machine (Hyper Light Drifter), poncle (Vampire Survivors) and many others. They promise this will be a "compact digital presentation showcasing the latest hits, all under an hour to respect player and studio time."

“We felt a need for a showcase that highlights wildly different indie games but that have one thing in common; they resonate with millions of players around the world. Since using letters seems to be the trend in the industry, we figured that adding a couple of i’s to indie was a fair way to describe this new format. Also, triple-i just sounds cool", said Evil Empire marketing director Berenger Dupre in a press release.

Evil Empire chief operating officer Benjamin Laulan added: “The goal is to have a straight-to-the-point show packed with announcements as a collective of studios, to speak directly to players, the people who have been directly supporting us since day 1. The show will run for about 45 minutes, featuring news by the most successful and creative folks out there. No hosting segments, no advertisements, no sponsorships, no extra fluff, just games.”
