With PlayStation Indies, we hope to spotlight and support the best of the best indie games being published on PlayStation and the entire indie community as a whole. Our goal is to make PlayStation the best place to develop, find, and play great indie games.

The initiative has put the spotlight on 9 indie games: Worms Rumble, Haven, Carto, Recompile, Where the Heart Is, Maquette, F.I.S.T: Forged in Shadow, Heavenly Bodies and Creaks. Haven has already been confirmed as a title to allow a playable demo on Xbox One as part of a Summer Game Fest demo event.
