Publishing platform indie.io on Monday launched Indie Pass, a subscription service that’s exclusively for indie games. There are more than 70 titles included in the launch catalog in a wide range of genres and from developers all over the world.
The service is intended to help with the discoverability of indie games, which can get lost in the sea of releases that are constantly hitting big digital storefronts. And it’s designed to supply an additional, more consistent revenue stream to smaller developers without locking them behind any kind of platform exclusivity.
Among the launch titles in the service are some games published by indie.io, like Forgotten Seas and SCP: Fragmented Minds, as well as non-indie.io games like Kaya’s Prophecy. You can see the entire catalogue on the Indie Pass website, where you can sort by genre, with selections for Cozy, RPG, Strategy, Horror, Action, Simulation, and Roguelite.
The service is available worldwide and costs $6.99 / €5.99 / £4.99 per month or $55.92 / €47.99 / £39.99 for a yearly subscription. You get unlimited access to all the games available on Indie Pass while your subscription is active, and new games will be added to it regularly, though specifics about how often they’ll be added haven’t been shared. Subscriptions can also be purchased through third-party marketplaces like Inven, with others to be announced in the future.
The process of playing the games available on Indie Pass is pretty straightforward. All you have to do is sign up and download the dedicated launcher, where all games that are part of the service will be available. You can, of course, search for games by title, but there are also lots of filter options to help find games that fit what you’re looking for even if you don’t know about them yet. That includes filters for genres, game features, how long it takes to beat, and supported languages.
For more information, you can visit the Indie Pass website, and for the latest news and updates, you can follow it on Instagram and X/Twitter. If you’re an indie developer or publisher who would like to get your game on the service, you can submit your game for consideration on this page.
