Play in a Train, a 1990s Apartment, and a Massive Bunker at the Ukiyo Studios Booth at Tokyo Game Show

Melbourne, Australia (Sep 14, 2026) — Ukiyo Studios is showing up strong at Tokyo Game Show 2026, partnering with CRITICAL REFLEX, Fireshine Games, C#4R4CT3R, 2P Games, and more indie developers and publishers from around the world to put together one of the biggest and boldest booths we’ve ever designed. You can stop by Fireshine’s area to play Denshattack! inside a train. We’ve recreated Reina’s apartment from Rain98, and we’ve teamed up with CRITICAL REFLEX to build an all-new experience within a bunker that you absolutely have to try for yourself.
​​
​You can find more details on everything below, but be sure to join us in Hall 4, Booth C08 to play some great games, take some photos, and get some goodies between Sep 17 - 21st, the longest TGS in history.

CRITICAL REFLEX presents the bunker - enter if you dare!
​Behind a sealed bunker door, find the cluttered bedroom of Shiaru, CRITICAL REFLEX’s new mascot: a sleep-deprived, terminally online curator of weird games, broken hardware, and things nobody asked for but everyone needs. Solve your way out while exploring CRITICAL REFLEX’s library and interact with the deadpan, expressive, and obsessive Shiaru! (voiced by Yumiri Hanamori of Kaguya-sama: Love is War, Yuru Camp, Fire Emblem: Three Houses, and Genshin Impact fame)

(The experience takes about 30 minutes)

TANUKI: Pon’s Summer from CRITICAL REFLEX
​TANUKI has been making a splash on its pre-release tour, and Pon is getting his packages loaded up for the game’s full release. You owe it to yourself to explore this heartwarming adventure, making deliveries around town while doing BMX tricks, helping your neighbors through various mini-games, and raising funds to restore the local shrine.

Flawless Abbey from CRITICAL REFLEX
​Playable for the first time ever, Flawless Abbey is a vibrant adventure inside a dream-tower, blending horror, hand-drawn art, and a deeply emotional story. You are a dreamseeker, and this is just another day on the job. What’s in store this time? A vast, revolving tower that moves and breathes in rhythm with a haunting lullaby? Your mission is to reach the top and change the abbess's mind. Otherwise, this dream will never end. — You do want to wake up again, don’t you?

CRITICAL REFLEX will have a wide range of outlandish and subversive games available to make you think and make you squirm! Whether you’re in for something inspiring, thoughtful, or disturbing, there’s something on this list that should get under your skin in a good way. So, be sure to give these games a look.

Core Keeper - Riders of the Underground from Fireshine Games
​Playable for the first time, this free expansion to the mining adventure brings a range of transformative updates for all players across consoles and PC. The game’s friendly cattle are now rideable mounts that can help you get around much faster, or keep you company as you issue commands for them to stay put, roam freely, or stay by your side. The expansion also includes a hookshot to cross chasms without building bridges. A new mossy sub-biome is opening up for players to explore. Plus, there are new pets, weapons, armor, and quality of life improvements. Play the demo at the booth to get a peek at everything Riders of the Underground has to offer before its official release on September 21st, and we’ll even have a glimpse of the Core itself. ​
​​
​Additionally, Fireshine will have demos for both Denshattack! and Far Far West, and they will be there in style! If you haven’t played either of these excellent titles, it’s a great chance to get acquainted with them. Denshattack! will be playable inside of a train car, while we’ve brought the saloon to life from Far Far West. We’ll also have plenty of mementos to pick up, including toy trains, cowboy hats, and more!

Rain98 from C#4R4CT3R
​We will have an all-new 80 minute demo for Rain98 debuting at TGS!
​Soak in the Tokyo vibes as you fall back in time to a 1998 apartment where the girl you just met wants you to help her destroy the world. But first, you’ll have to help with the laundry. See the gorgeous first title from Japanese studio C#4R4CT3R and find out why critics from around the world have been raving about the art, music, and mystery of this moody adventure. You can also take photos with our Reina cosplayer, and even don her hairstyle.

Dungeon Lurker from 13AM Games
​Like a lost relic on a forgotten 32-bit console, Dungeon Lurker mixes Golden Axe style combat with RPG and roguelite upgrades, pushing you to fight your way deeper into the dungeon across multiple runs while mastering a variety of upgrades and spells. Get a taste of what’s in store, and you might also stumble upon clues that there’s more happening outside the box.

Remothered: Red Nun's Legacy from Soft Source
​Created to captivate both newcomers and longtime fans of the Remothered saga, Red Nun’s Legacy is a modern survival horror game inspired by the classics, blending stealth and psychological horror with new mechanics centered on perception, hypnosis and environmental manipulation. In the trilogy’s final chapter, enter a nightmare to save your kidnapped daughter, survive what hunts you, and uncover the Red Nun’s truth through retrocognition, mirror abilities and moth manipulation. All of this backed by an original soundtrack by legendary composer Akira Yamaoka.
​

Putty World 35th Anniversary from Soft Source
​In a completely different direction, Soft Source will also be demonstrating Putty World 35th Anniversary – a modern remaster of Putty (1992) and Putty Squad (1994), originally released on the SNES and Amiga consoles. The original games were among the first European games to secure a Japanese release on the Super Famicom and they sold over 2 million copies across all platforms.

It Takes Paws from 2P Games
​A hilarious physics co-op platformer where a cat and a pug venture into a fantasy game world to save their unconscious owner. Using their floppy, "noodle-man" human as a living rope and lever, players must coordinate to bite, swing, and launch each other through wild obstacles—or playfully sabotage their partner!

2P Games is bringing a stack of titles as well. So be sure to check out their full TGS lineup, including:
​Good Heavens!
​The Piper of Dawn
​My Fairy Princess
​Remnants of Sin: Deck & Puzzle
​Hair Removal Salon Simulator

​R.I.P. - Reincarnation Insurance Program

Box Knight from We Made A Thing Studios
​Featuring beat-em-up gameplay mixed with roguelike mechanics, Box Knight has you battling your way through drones and gremlins spawned from toxic workplace culture. Become the Box Knight to take back the office and defeat the evil bosses. We’ll have a demo available to play in either single player or co-op modes.

Tokyo Xtreme Racer from Genki
​We’ll have a full racing wheel setup in the booth for you to put your foot to the floor and race through faithfully recreated Tokyo expressways. Wear down your opponents’ mental resolve with its one-of-a-kind spirit points system, and take advantage of real world customization options to give your car the edge you need to pull ahead.

Mascots!
​And of course, we’ll have a few mascots roaming nearby, including the frog from Sledding Game, Pon from TANUKI, and the Caveling from Core Keeper. Keep an eye out because you never know when these colorful characters might make their way through.
