Games Without AI: Independent Showcase Celebrates Handcrafted Games on November 25

The Games Without AI is an independent indie game showcase that rejects the use of generative artificial intelligence in art, music, and voice, premiering on November 25, 2026.

What happened?

Organized by Dev Land Marketing, the event gathers PC and console games created entirely by humans. The condition to participate is not to use generative AI in creative elements like art, music, and voice acting. The showcase will be streamed on the All Ages of Geek YouTube channel, with more than 100 trailers expected.

There is a community verification process on Discord until November 1, and a parallel Steam event from November 25 to December 6. The campaign extends until February 25, 2027.

Why does this matter?

Amid debates about “AI slop” on digital stores like Steam, Games Without AI provides a clear space for players and developers who prefer handcrafted creations. The event includes sponsor support, such as free trailers and marketing.

What changes in practice?

Indie developers can apply until November 1. Players gain an easy way to find games without generative AI. The hashtag #gameswithoutAI will be used on social media.
