​In addition to the competitive show, BIG will invite outstanding Brazilian games to the non-competitive showcase Panorama Brazil!

To participate in the non-competitive showcase, Brazilian studios simply submit their games to the festival.
The games will be selected by the same committee that selects the games from the competitive show. Of course Brazilian games can also be selected to the competitive section of the festival.

All selected games are showcased at the Festival, which is attended by big names from the industry, developers, media, professionals and the general public - all free of charge.

In 2019, 75 selected games from 22 countries were showcased.
43 countries have submitted games to the festival. Learn more about what happened at BIG 2019 in the video below:
