In July, thousands of games industry professionals from around the world descended on Brighton, to attend the UK’s biggest video games industry event,

Trans Pride Brighton & Hove is the largest Trans Pride event outside of the United States, bringing together thousands of people in both protest and celebration.

Out Making Games was proud to represent for the fifth year running, creating a space for our community to connect and proudly representing trans, non-binary, and gender-diverse people, as well as queer allies, in the games industry.

As we rapidly pass through June, we want to take another opportunity to wish everyone a very happy Pride month. We hope that you have been finding ways to celebrate all the amazing individuals that you are!

The International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia, or IDAHOBIT, takes place on the 17th May with the date specifically chosen to commemorate the World Health Organization's decision in 1990 to declassify homosexuality as a mental disorder. Originally known as the International Day Against Homophobia when first celebrated in 2005, it expanded to cover transphobia in 2009 and biphobia in 2015. The day serves as an opportunity to raise awareness of the treatment of LGBTQ+ people worldwide, including the ongoing repression and discrimination, as well as a chance to come together to drive positive change going forward.

Following Barclays recent changes to their treatment of trans women, Out Making Games have withdrawn our support from the Barclays Games Frenzy 2025 event, and will no longer be taking part as guest panellists.

The recent UK Supreme Court ruling redefining the protected characteristic of “sex” in the Equality Act has sent a wave of fear, grief, and anger through the LGBTQ+ community — particularly among trans people. This ruling is more than a legal technicality. It is a reminder to many of our friends, colleagues, and loved ones that their rights, safety, and very existence are still under debate in the eyes of the law.

The recent changes to Meta’s content moderation policies put at least 9% of adults around the world at risk.

We are Out Making Games (“OMG”), a network of hundreds of LGBTQ+ games professionals, representing millions of LGBTQ+ gamers and individuals around the world. We are writing to express serious concerns about the recent changes to Meta’s content moderation policies and their potential implications for online safety and inclusion for millions around the world…

As we head into the summer, June is Pride month, and is seen as an opportunity to commemorate the fight for civil rights and the ongoing pursuit of equal justice under the law for the queer community, as well as a chance to celebrate the accomplishments of LGBTQ+ individuals.
