Kyrgyzstan Presents Its GameDev Industry at Gamescom 2026

Kyrgyz GameDev at Gamescom 2026

From August 26 to 30, Gamescom 2026 took place in Cologne, bringing together developers, publishers, investors, and technology companies from around the world at one of the largest international events in the gaming industry.

The High Technology Park of the Kyrgyz Republic participated in Gamescom for the second consecutive year. For HTP, this is part of its systematic efforts to promote local technology companies, develop the export potential of the GameDev industry, and strengthen the position of Kyrgyz developers in the international market.

4Tale Production Presented Its Own Game Projects

4Tale Production, a resident of the High Technology Park, was represented at the HTP booth and presented two upcoming projects: Steel Ark and In Da Boat.

For the Kyrgyz gaming industry, the growing number of companies focused on creating their own intellectual property and game products for international audiences is an important development. This approach enables the industry to gradually expand beyond a predominantly service-based model toward the development of its own products and brands.

In addition to the HTP booth, Kyrgyz studios Artmer Studio and Door 407 participated independently in Gamescom 2026. Their presence demonstrates that international engagement is becoming an increasingly important part of the development of Kyrgyzstan’s GameDev community and is not limited to individual initiatives.

International Contacts and Media Attention

During Gamescom, representatives of HTP and Kyrgyz game development companies held meetings with international studios, potential partners, and other industry participants.

The Kyrgyz delegation also attracted the attention of international media. Representatives of the delegation spoke with journalists from two foreign media outlets, including one from Australia. Such attention helps increase the visibility of Kyrgyz developers and their projects beyond the region.

GameDev and International Promotion

The gaming industry brings together technological and creative fields, including software development, game design, 2D and 3D graphics, animation, sound, and digital content creation.

For Kyrgyz GameDev companies, participation in international platforms provides opportunities to present their projects, exchange experience, and establish direct contacts with developers, publishers, and potential partners.

For its part, the High Technology Park works to expand such opportunities for its residents and support a stronger presence of Kyrgyz companies in the international gaming industry.

Next Steps

The High Technology Park will continue its efforts to develop the GameDev community, promote its residents, and create opportunities for Kyrgyz companies to enter international markets.

Participation in Gamescom is one of the tools supporting this work, enabling developers to present their projects directly to the global industry, establish new contacts, and explore opportunities for further development.

HTP’s second consecutive year at Gamescom demonstrates the consistency of this work. The next focus is on new products, international partnerships, and stronger export results for Kyrgyzstan’s GameDev industry
