The latest Wholesome Direct showcase, which brings you the latest, greatest and cutest upcoming indie games, is set to return in 2022 on 11 June and 12 June. The latest showcase, organised by Wholesome Games, promises brand new game reveals and exclusive footage alongside a number of mystery games that will reportedly launch during the show.

These showcases tend to be lower key, and have a focus on endearing, beautiful and/or meaningful video games, with a range of independent creators invited to show off their latest projects during the Direct.

So far, the following wholesome games have been confirmed to appear:

Wholesome Games have also promised around ‘100 amazing indie games’ will be featured during the show.
