History
Realms Deep was founded in 2020 by members of 3D Realms, Slipgate Ironworks, and an assortmentment of volunteers in order to fill the void created by the lack of in person gaming conventions caused by the COVID-19 Pandemic. The goal was simple, create an online showcase for the coolest games, and make a crazy show to highlight them, gather attention, and celebrate the history of our favorite genres.
Teaming up with a huge roster of fellow publishers, indie dev teams, and solo developers, the first Realms Deep featured a showcase of some of the most exciting releases and announcements in action games at the time. The showcase featured recently released games, brand new ones, upcoming titles, interviews with legendary developers, sketches, and a whole lot of antics.
Over the past several years, Realms Deep has continued to grow into an annual event that indie action developers, studios, publishers, and fans celebrate as the go-to event to find out what’s happening, who to keep an eye on, and… Well… Just to have a good time watching a great show.
Team
Aside from 3D Realms, Realms Deep includes an amazing cast of contributing publishers, studios, content creators, and friends. From OGs like New Blood Interactive, Nightdive Studios, Running With Scissors, Tastyspleen.tv, and In The Keep to more recent participants such as Retrovibe, Hooded Horse, Dread XP, and Hyperstrange, Realms Deep has always been a collaborative community effort.
Interviews from Ty Brannan and Jared R. Bair have also been a mainstay while in recent years a power struggle has formed where Jared and his friends at Running With Scissors have stolen Ty’s position as host. We’ll all have to wait for the story to unfold…
