A record 127 Korean game companies exhibited at the Tokyo Game Show, which opened Thursday, according to the source article. For the first time, the country's biggest publishers all brought subculture games — a genre built around anime-style art and characters — as their leading titles.
The Tokyo Game Show is one of the world's largest video game exhibitions, typically held at Makuhari Messe in Chiba, Japan. The event draws major publishers and developers from across Asia and beyond.
Subculture games, often featuring anime-inspired aesthetics and character-driven narratives, have gained significant popularity in Japan and other Asian markets. Korean publishers are increasingly targeting this genre to appeal to fans in the region.
The strong Korean presence at the show underscores the growing influence of the country's game industry in the global market. Further details about specific titles and announcements were not immediately available.
