The Agency for Creative Industries will host the international video game marathon "Moscow – Indonesia" for the first time. Moscow developers will team up with colleagues from Indonesia to create game prototypes. The organizers will announce the project theme a few days before the marathon begins.

Within two days, teams will have to develop a concept, create a project, and bring it to a working prototype, combining the professional competencies of the participants.

Applications are accepted until September 9. The selection will take place from September 10 to September 17, 2026. Based on its results, 40 specialists will be selected and distributed among 10 teams.

The marathon will be held from October 1 to October 3 at the Moscow Video Game and Animation Cluster. The event will conclude with a demo day: teams will present project concepts and ready-made game mechanics to an expert jury and investors.

The jury will select the best projects based on the presentations. Their authors will receive certificates of marathon completion.

The Agency for Creative Industries under the Moscow Department of Culture is engaged in the development of the capital's creative industries, including design, contemporary art, video games, and publishing. The organization's tasks also include promoting the products of Moscow representatives of these industries in international markets and forming Moscow's image as an international center for creative industries.

Earlier, the Moscow Agency for Creative Industries promoted domestic games in foreign markets: in particular, agreements were reached on exporting games to Indonesia at the Indonesia Game Developer eXchange exhibition. Later it became known that Moscow video game studios concluded export contracts worth over one billion rubles.
