PLEASE SEE UPDATED STATEMENT OF WORK (SOW) The U.S. Embassy's Public Affairs Section (PAS) is seeking a vendor familiar with social impact video games to develop an interactive video game or visual novel focusing on D-Day, with the goal of engaging 16–25-year-olds. We want to emphasize the importance of diplomacy and constructive engagement in our game. Our target audience includes younger players, and we want to ensure that the content is suitable for them. The focus must emphasize the importance of peaceful resolutions and strategic decision-making and on less on overtly violent images. By prioritizing diplomacy in the game, we can provide a more engaging and educational experience for our audience. The game is set to be released just before the June 2024 commemorations, aiming to increase awareness, and understanding of the American role in the events surrounding D-Day. Only companies or individuals specializing in this field should apply. Awards are made to the lowest priced technically acceptable offeror who is a responsible Contractor.

Any awards made are firm fixed price type agreements, and payments for services will be made after the event based on quantities and unit prices only to the extent specifically provided in the contract.
