Nordic DiGRA 2025
26–28 May 2025 in Turku, Finland
In the Nordic DiGRA 2025 conference, we invite authors interested in games, play, game creation, and related phenomena, regardless of discipline, to submit their work connected to the conference theme of hope in its various forms. We invite perspectives related to, for example, participant cultures, game design and production, readings of games, gamification and game-related phenomena, and theoretical and methodological development. The topic is also a call for game scholarly self-reflection: do we risk becoming doomsayers to avoid being seen as naïve? What kind of narratives of game culture and the world are we telling and subscribing to? Are we solving, hiding, or exacerbating problems?
Nordic DiGRA 2025 is organised on 26–28 May 2025 in Turku, Finland, at the University of Turku by the Finnish Society for Game Research, in collaboration with the Centre of Excellence in Game Culture Studies.
Nordic DiGRA 2025 conference committee has assembled Inclusion and Safety regulations for the conference, which will be followed.
