New Indie Games — May 2026

May 2026 leans hard on music and slice-of-life. Wax Heads turns a struggling vinyl shop into a cozy-punk narrative sim, Dead as Disco syncs every punch to the beat in a viral rhythm brawler, Mixtape is Annapurna's 90s coming-of-age trip with a soundtrack featuring The Cure and Smashing Pumpkins, Coffee Talk Tokyo brings the late-night café series to modern Tokyo, and Paralives finally hits Early Access as the long-awaited indie life sim. Here are the standout indie releases of the month.
