Entry Acceptance for Online Game Award 'SHIBA GAME AWARD 2025 WINTER' Has Started!

2025-10-06 RELEASE

The SHIBA GAME AWARD Executive Committee, operated by SQOOL Co., Ltd. (Minato-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Kenji Kato), announced on Monday, October 6, 2025, that it has started accepting entries for 'SHIBA GAME AWARD 2025 WINTER'.

SHIBA GAME AWARD is an online game award established in 2019 as 'SQOOL GAME AWARD' by the editorial department of game media 'SQOOL.NET Game Laboratory' with the aim of supporting game creators, and is held twice a year.

This online game award operates with the policy of recognizing game titles and game creators that we 'want to support,' rather than necessarily recognizing excellent games or commercially successful games. The award has grown in scale with each iteration, and the previous 'SQOOL GAME AWARD 2025 SUMMER' received 131 game title entries from around the world.

This 'SHIBA GAME AWARD 2025 WINTER' also accepts game entries from around the world, not just Japan.
Entries are accepted until 23:59 JST on October 31, 2025.
