Irish games fund
Irish Games Fund returns, refined based upon all of the excellent feedback received from 2025. Irish Games Fund will consist of three unique strands, designed to create opportunities for game creators at all stages of their journey.
These strands, developed to allow Irish studios developing original IP to access funding , include our returning Development Fund of up to €50K per team, alongside prototype funding of €12K per team. We also have a brand new Release Fund for games that are ready to launch coming in the near future.
More information on the Irish Games Fund strands will be announced later this year. We’re currently focused on the Development Fund, which will go live in the coming weeks.
