#BreaktheBias During the Women’s Day Steam Event March 7–11th, 2022
Women-led game studios are set to #BreaktheBias for International Women’s Day with a special Women’s Day Steam Event, running throughout the week of March 7–11th, 2022.
WINGS and a team of women from the games industry is proud to organize this new event, featuring over 200 top selling, critically-acclaimed, and upcoming games made by women-led studios. The Women’s Day Sale introduces gamers to the incredible diversity of talent behind some of the most creative, popular and unique video games on Steam.
Games from developers from all over the world will be featured during the Women’s Day Event, with discounts on select titles plus game previews of soon-to-be released projects. There is a full schedule of streaming broadcasts airing on Steam during the event, all of which can be found on the official event page from March 7–11th 2022.
“With only 21% of game developers identifying as women in 2020, many people aren’t aware that the games they’re playing are from women-led teams,” explains Audrey Leprince, co-founder of WINGS. “While WINGS is working to fund more women and gender-diverse developers, this Women’s Day Event is shining a spotlight on the diversity of talent behind popular and upcoming games on Steam.”
The Women’s Day Event will include critical hits like GreedFall, Little Misfortune, Road 96, Tick Tock: A Tale for Two, Calico, Boyfriend Dungeon, and highly anticipated upcoming games like The Wandering Village, Ova Magica or Cat Cafe Manager, along with over 200 more games to be discovered during the March 7–11th, 2022 event.
The criteria for games participating in this event is that they are made by teams led by women and have a positive or higher review score on Steam. The team at WINGS hopes to renew the event every year, and include different criteria to showcase an even wider diversity of creators and games.
