Watch Guerrilla Collective Black Voices In Gaming Stream Here Now

Guerrilla Collective--a new organization made of developers and publishers looking to promote their games in an E3 replacement event--chose to postpone its primary announcement stream to June 13, but it has a replacement today focused exclusively on black game developers.

Today at 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET, the Black Voices in Gaming stream will allow developers to talk about their game development experiences. In addition to black game developers, the stream will also feature black protagonists.

Featured developers included Decoy Games, Gameheads, Waking Oni Games, and Jesse Wright, among several others. It will be streamed on the official Guerrilla Collective Twitch channel, which we've also embedded below so you can watch the stream here.

The decision to postpone the primary Guerrilla Collective event and host the Black Voices in Gaming stream first came after racial justice protests began around the world in the aftermath of George Floyd's death. In its announcement, Guerrilla Collective said it stands in support of Black Lives Matter.

It's hardly the only initiative the game industry has taken in the wake of Floyd's death, either. Itch.io gathered more than 500 game developers to release over 740 games in a special $5 bundle devoted to racial justice funding. At the time of this writing, the bundle has raised nearly $1.7 million despite an initial goal of only $500,000. Several game companies have also made their own donations to groups like NAACP and Color of Change.
