In addition to the Official Exhibitor Programs broadcast on the Tokyo Game Show’s main channels, several developers and publishers will host their own streams. These include Bandai Namco, KOEI TECMO, and Square Enix, among others. These streams will be available on their respective channels and may overlap with the Tokyo Game Show's official schedule.
Key highlights from these publishers include KOEI TECMO's upcoming game Atelier Yumia, Nihon Falcom's The Legend of Heroes: Kai no Kiseki – Farewell, O Zemuria, and Square Enix's Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake.
Sony Interactive Entertainment (SIE) is making a significant return to the main exhibit at Tokyo Game Show 2024 after a four-year hiatus, joining other major publishers like Capcom and Konami. Last year, Sony's participation was limited to the Demo Play area for indie games. While it's not yet clear what Sony will showcase this year, many of their 2024 releases were already announced during a State of Play in May. Sony has also confirmed that there will be no major new franchise releases before April 2025.
