Winners of the Development Legend and Grand Prix prizes will be announced on the night of the awards.
Every July, Develop hosts the biggest awards night on the game development industry calendar with over 500 people attending representing companies from around the world.
Now in their ninth year, the Develop Industry Excellence Awards once again take place in Brighton at the Hilton Metropole Hotel, on the evening of July 20th.
While there are a number of awards in this industry, the Develop Awards are the only peer-voted prizes for UK and European games developers which focus purely on creativity, teamwork, and inspiring innovation. Not marketing. Not hype.
21 awards are up for grabs for studios across Europe, with the core awards like Independent Studio, Development Legend and New IP still part of the mix.
Last year's New Download IP, Micro Studio and individual creative outsourcing awards which debuted last year also return.

Over the last five years the Develop Conference & Expo has rapidly established itself as the leading event for games design and development professionals in Europe.
