VANCOUVER — Virtual reality and metaverse technology company Utherverse is launching its inaugural Adult Game Fest convention and trade show, taking place Sept. 24-26.
According to a rep, the online event will take place on the Utherverse platform and offer attendees virtual exhibition halls featuring game studios, technology and service providers, payment companies, and interactive product demonstrations; the “Adult Game Investment Forum” featuring live startup pitches and investor presentations; and educational conference tracks covering game development, AI, creator monetization, legal and regulatory compliance, publishing, and emerging technologies, among other topics.
Additionally, the event will offer executive networking events, curated business matchmaking, entertainment, and after-hours virtual socials — as well as a digital swag bag with measurable offers, exclusive content, discounts, affiliate promotions, product trials, and digital experiences.
“Despite generating an estimated $500-plus million annually — across platforms such as Steam, Patreon, and Itch.io — the adult gaming sector has never had a dedicated industry event where developers, studios, creators, and brands can connect, showcase titles, and do business,” said Utherverse Executive VP Anna Lee. “Adult Game Fest was created to solve that gap by offering a fully immersive, avatar-driven convention experience.
“Adult game developers have historically struggled to gain visibility and connect with both players and potential business partners in a meaningful way,” Lee added. “Adult Game Fest gives studios a platform to reach a highly engaged audience of gamers and adult content consumers.”
Additionally, Utherverse has named XBIZ its official Media Partner.
Sponsorship and exhibitor packages are currently available across multiple tiers, offering brands and studios immersive activations, naming rights, digital swag bag placement, and direct access to a targeted audience of adult gamers and content creators.
Early-bird tickets are currently available with a 50% discount, and credentialed industry professionals and influencers may apply for complimentary access.
