gore and violence assume users should opt in to viewing gore and violence.
as of 2025, a new visiter must be subjected to violent content on the front page before having the option to log in or select categories or input search terms.
why not assume the user must not see this until at least able to show initiative (not behave like a literal child) log in (require credentials) or at least have some option of leaving before interacting. consider the way nipples or crude language is treated as adult content, we can cater to much wider audiences.

Multiple Parent Versions for Games One of my favourite features of IGDB is that it is a helpful resource for finding all versions of a video game, whether it be remakes, remasters, ports, or mods that can improve on a vanilla game. However, I noticed that (just as one example) that every DLC for Capcom Arcade Stadium are just a DLC for that game in particular, when it could also easily be a port of those games as well. Similarly, Fallout: A Tale of Two Wastelands could be considered a mod for both Fallout 3 and New Vegas (it needs 3's files to work) but…

Game status on page collection and franchise. Hello! Suggestion to display the status of games (want, playing, played) on the collection and franchise pages. So as not to fall into the game to view the status. Sometimes time passes and you no longer remember which game from the collection you stopped at.

Big Time Category Removal: (hate on crypto/nft!?) (Just committing suicide with time here as nothing I say will ever matter, as logic has no value & intelligent lives do not matter but here we go):
Crpyto & NFT = AO rating = no category on twitch: (Makes no sense)
Twitch allows a streamer to label their streams 18+ so there is no logical reason to remove a game like Big Time, (AO rated while having no nudity or blood) as a streaming category from twitch!
I see this as age discrimination: adults do not have any rights to be adults on twitch.
Shouldn't parents be responsible for…

Dynamic info when clicking on a Developer/Publisher from a Game page When clicking on the link to a Developer or Publisher from a Game page they are connected to, it would be good if the page displayed the corresponding list of games they developed/published (in the section currently under the timeline).
Right now, if you were to click on a Publisher from a Game page, it would by default show all games they have developed in that list, needing an extra click to show their list of published games.

Some additions/improvements Hello! I'm new to this site. I've only been using it for a very short time, but I already consider it the best in its category. That said, a few key additions would make creating my lists much easier.
The first and most obvious would be the addition of a pagination system. Second, and I believe this is the most important, an option in the "advanced search" to filter by main game, DLCs, mods, etc. would be extremely helpful.
Lastly, a simple dark mode setting would greatly improve the site's visual experience.

Game has poorly chosen description Your page for the game I Cannot Drown simply has it described as "a Yume Nikki fangame with 11 effects". I'm aware that blurb is on the game's itch.io page, but the creator already has a better description for the game right above it: "Your name is Ume. You are in a world. It is a familiar yet unknown world. Stretch your legs and go for a walk."
It is a bit vague in terms of game descriptions but it's far better than just being called a fangame. If that isn't good enough, I'll gladly come up with one that…

Missing status Field in ReleaseDate Data I am using the IGDB API to retrieve game information and have encountered an issue with the ReleaseDate table. According to the documentation, it should include a status (or statusId) field related to ReleaseDateStatus. However, when making a request for all fields in ReleaseDate, this field is missing from the API response.

Radar Chart Hi IGDB Team,
I noticed that with the recent update, the radar chart (spiderweb chart) showing my genre distribution stats (e.g., how many adventure games I’ve played compared to action, RPG, etc.) has been removed. I found this feature super valuable and fun—it gave great insights into my gaming habits at a glance.
I wanted to kindly request if you would consider bringing it back in a future update. It was a unique and engaging way to visualize data, and I’m sure many other users also enjoyed it.
Thank you for your time, and keep up the great work!

Pinball Generic Pinball game/category for IRL pinball games which has a very active community.
There are two currently that are linked to old games.
Pinball https://www.igdb.com/games/pinball
Pinball https://www.igdb.com/games/pinball--1I tried to modify one of these (because it is really unused) and the change was denied.
Can we get a generic IRL Pinball game/category?
