AAPI Heritage Month serves as a celebration of the rich cultural tapestry of Asian and Pacific Islander communities, highlighting the diverse influences within. The complexities of the AAPI identity often stem from experiences of growing up between two cultures, resulting in unique stories that resonate in modern art forms, particularly video games. Titles developed by AAPI creators, such as Venba and Butterfly Soup, explore first- and second-generation narratives, while other games from the region offer a broader perspective on these intertwined cultures, showcasing their depth and impact on storytelling.
Real, lived experiences are some of the strongest influences in art.
