Important: VIGMA postponed to 17 April 2020 to protect participants' health

To protect the health of the game development community following the spread of the coronavirus, we inform all VIGMA fans and participants that the event has been postponed to 29 Farvardin of next year (17 April 2020).

Thanks to the tireless, intensive work of the VIGMA organising team in recent months, everything needed to hold a high-quality event on the set date, 15 Esfand 1398 (5 March 2020), is ready, but in the current situation the health of participants and guests matters more.

The organising team of the Video Game Critics Festival thanks the event's sponsors and participants for supporting this decision, and is determined to spend the time until the event improving it further, so that in the end it holds an event worthy of the game development community.

Because the date has changed, the nominees of the Video Game Critics Festival will also be announced next year, before the event, and until then the list of nominees will stay confidential with the organising team.

The first Video Game Critics Festival (VIGMA), run by specialist media with the support and cooperation of the Iran Computer and Video Games Foundation, was to be held on 15 Esfand (5 March 2020) at the ICT Research Institute; that date has been moved to 29 Farvardin 1399 (17 April 2020).
