Supporting Turkish game studios on the international stage.
Games from Türkiye is a non-profit initiative that selects, and promotes Turkish games nationally and internationally. We are an independent program founded under TOGED, we bring all stakeholders from Turkish game industry in one umbrella.
“No funding, no publishing, no IP involvement. We exist to help the ecosystem.”
GFT is a unique program to support game industry. Program initially planned to promote games but evolved into an important mechanism for research, data, family education and essentially a knowledge hub.
Curation
We select games through Kristal Piksel nominations, GFT event committees, and year-round selection committee decisions. Only games that meet our quality and international potential criteria are selected.
Support
Year-round promotion for selected games. We provide visibility, media coverage, and access to the GFT network of publishers, investors, and distributors.
Representation
We facilitate Turkish studio participation in major international events: Gamescom, GDC, Tokyo Game Show.
How games are selected.
A game appears in the GFT archive only if it has been selected through one of three official routes. There are no exceptions and no self-submissions.
