About Yogscast Games
Yogscast Games is a Bristol-based independent publisher focused on bringing games from solo developers and small teams to PC and console audiences. Established in 2017 as the publishing arm of The Yogscast, it supports indie projects from early pitch evaluation through production, release and long-term commercial strategy.
The publisher combines funding and product management with quality assurance, localisation support, platform strategy, storefront curation and marketing across press, influencers and streaming communities. Its approach is shaped by access to the wider Yogscast creator network while remaining a distinct publishing business with its own portfolio, channels and legal entity.

Yogscast Games works with developers across genres including roguelike deckbuilders, action games, management simulations and comedy adventures. Its services are designed for compact teams that need practical publishing support alongside audience development and release planning.
