The Japanese are serious: Koei Tecmo, Capcom and Bandai Namco have revealed ambitious plans for their participation in Tokyo Game Show 2025
Yesterday the largest European gaming exhibition gamescom 2025 came to an end, where a huge number of new products were announced and demonstrated.
It's time to move on and the next large-scale international event will be Tokyo Game Show 2025, which is traditionally the most prestigious exhibition in Asia.
Japanese companies always take a responsible approach to their presentations and stands at TGS and this year will be no exception: three giants of the gaming industry have revealed their plans to participate in the exhibition.
Here's What We Know
Of course, Koei Tecmo, Capcom and Bandai Namco can't miss Tokyo Game Show 2025 and have prepared loud premieres and cool shows for the audience.
Briefly about the companies' plans
Koei Tecmo will present three major projects at once:
- Ninja Gaiden 4, the highly anticipated sequel to the iconic hardcore slasher series being developed by Team Ninja in association with PlatinumGames. The game will be released on 21 October on PS5, Xbox Series and PC, with a demo available at TGS.
- Nioh 3 is a new chapter of Team Ninja's open-world samurai action game that will take gamers to feudal Sengoku-era Japan, plunged into the chaos of civil war and an invasion of fantasy monsters. Nioh 3 is scheduled for release in early 2026.
- Hyrule Warriors: Age of Imprisonment is a Switch 2 exclusive set in The Legend of Zelda universe. The game will be available for trial for the first time.
Capcom will be bringing eight games at once
- Resident Evil Requiem and Resident Evil: Survival Unit - two new projects in the RE universe, one of which is focused on mobile platforms.
- Monster Hunter Wilds, Outlanders and Stories 3: Twisted Reflection are three MH titles for different platforms.
- Pragmata is a sci-fi action game announced for 2020 that will finally get a detailed gameplay reveal.

Capcom will also hold an online presentation on the 24th of September, where it will reveal details of its games and will surely announce a few more projects.
Bandai Namco is banking on variety:
- Little Nightmares III - a sequel to the atmospheric horror platformer with co-op mode and an updated visual style.

Tokyo Game Show 2025 promises not only to be one of the busiest events of the year, but also to break its own records of previous years: 772 exhibitors, including 473 Japanese studios, and more than 4,000 booths have already been announced.
The show will take place from 25 to 28 September.
