DevGamm 2025 welcomed more than 1,100 attendees, establishing a new record in Europe.

This year's DevGamm, held in early 2025, shattered previous attendance records in Europe by welcoming 1,122 participants from as many as 53 different nations.

With nearly 44% of attendees hailing from Portugal, the event organizers also noted a significant presence from the UK, Poland, and Spain.

During the Lisbon Conference, over 75 prominent developers spoke, representing major industry players such as Xbox, Sandfall Interactive, Warhorse Studios, 11 Bit Studios, Sony Interactive Entertainment, Unity, Ubisoft, and Scopely.

The event featured the largest games showcase in DevGamm's history, with more than 80 games displayed over two days. It concluded with the DevGamm Awards, where the Grand Prize of $20,000 was awarded to YCJY Games for "Keep Driving."

DevGamm’s inaugural high-level event, the Madeira Games Summit, attracted 120 industry experts from major companies including Epic Games, Unreal Engine, 2K Games, Bossa Games, EA, Krafton, and Unity.

The summit featured talks and discussions from notable figures such as Ustwo Games CEO Maria Sayans, Colossal Order CEO Mariina Hallikainen, and FunPlus chief business officer Chris Petrovic, with GamesIndustry.biz features editor Lewis Packwood moderating.

Looking forward, DevGamm has outlined plans to hold three events in 2026, with gatherings scheduled for Dubai in the spring, Gdańsk in June, and Lisbon in November.
