What to Expect at the Tokyo Game Show 2022
After three years, the Tokyo Game Show is back in person and it’s welcoming the public to see the future of video games from some of the biggest developers from across the globe. You can see what was announced last year at TGS 2021 to get a better idea of TGS, although keep in mind the past few years were digital events only, and this one is in-person! For those attending in-person this year, you can expect booths and experiences for Smartphone Games, VR/AR, e-Sports, Game School, Indie Games and Indie Game “Selected Exhibit” and New Stars Area (Asia/Eastern Europe/Latin).
Developer List Attending TGS 2022
- Xbox
- Capcom
- Sega
- Square Enix
- Koei Tecmo
- Konami
- HoYoverse
- (and more!)
Xbox Games
Xbox has revealed that it will be providing updates on “existing titles from Xbox Game Studios and titles launching from developer partners that we hope will delight players here in Japan, across Asia and around the world.” Here’s what to expect from Xbox at TGS this year.
More Games from Capcom, Konami and Koei Tecmo
There’s plenty more to look forward to, as Konami will announce an unknown game in a “world-loved” series, Koei Tecmo will be showcasing more of Atelier Ryza 3: Alchemist of the End & the Secret Key and Wo Long: Fallen Dynasty, and Street Fighter 6 will have a dedicated stream providing fans with the latest updates on the much-anticipated next entry in the legendary fighting series.
Besides Street Fighter 6, we very well may learn more about Resident Evil 4 Remake, Exoprimal, Mega Man Battle Network Legacy Collection, or Monster Hunter Rise: Sunbreak from Capcom. While RE4 is a mystery, we do know that guests of TGS will be able to check out Resident Evil Village on PlayStation VR 2 for the first time.
Square Enix Games
Square Enix doesn’t have a traditional presentation, but it will have a stream that will showcase more Forspoken, Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VIII Reunion, and Star Ocean 6: The Divine Show via the hosts of the EIKO KANO’s CRITIKANO HIT series. (Also see: every Square Enix game in development).
Other panels include those focused on, but not limited to:

What is the Tokyo Game Show?
Tokyo Game Show (TGS) is one of the world’s largest events in gaming and has been around since the 1990s! TGS usually hosts big gaming exhibitors and developers including Xbox, Square Enix, Ubisoft, Capcom, Konami, miHoYo, Bandai Namco, and many more. The event is usually filled with showroom announcements, interviews and much more excitement around anticipated games and new games alike. Even when the event was digital-only more recently, TGS continued to stream announcements and keep the lights on for us all.
In fact, “Nothing Stops Gaming” is the theme this year, representing the “transformative power to bring joy and foster community” in gaming, despite recent years’ challenges the world has faced.
