Now in its second year \u2014 it debuted at Summer Game Fest 2025 \u2014 the showcase returns to the same global stage in 2026, giving SEA studios a spotlight alongside the year&#8217;s biggest gaming announcements.<\/p>\n<p>Co-founded by Arief Johan and Samantha Low, this year&#8217;s event received hundreds of developer submissions. Seven hosts representing Singapore, Malaysia, Philippines, Vietnam, and beyond will guide the broadcast: co-founders Arief Johan and Samantha Low, plus Jay Wong, Michael Higham, Nhi Do, Sarah Johana, and Victoria Tran.<\/p>\n<h2>5 Confirmed Games for SEAGS 2026<\/h2>\n<p>Five titles are confirmed ahead of the live show \u2014 with more surprises expected once the broadcast begins.<\/p>\n<h3>No Straight Roads 2 \u2014 Metronomik &amp; Shueisha<\/h3>\n<p>The sequel to the beloved 2020 rhythm-action cult hit is headlining the 2026 showcase. Rock rebels Mayday and Zuke of Bunk Bed Junction return, joined by two new characters each bringing fresh musical identities and gameplay mechanics. The Malaysian studio has since teased a new dance track, &#8216;vs. Rama Irama&#8217;, hinting at an even wider musical scope. Expect new details \u2014 possibly a release window \u2014 live on Saturday.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gametrader.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/no-straight-roads-2-seag-2026.jpg?w=474&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"No Straight Roads 2 key art showing Mayday and Zuke\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"><figcaption>Image courtesy of Metronomik<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>TCG Card Shop Simulator \u2014 O.P. Neon Games<\/h3>\n<p>Run your own local game store: hire staff, stock booster packs, host TCG events, and expand your shop. Already in early access, this one hits close to home for Singapore&#8217;s thriving TCG community. Think of it as living the dream without the rent.<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.gametrader.sg\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/tcg-card-shop-simulator-seag-2026.jpg?w=474&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"TCG Card Shop Simulator key art\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\"><figcaption>Image courtesy of O.P. Neon Games<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>Montabi \u2014 Mankibo &amp; Akupara Games<\/h3>\n<p>A creature-collector roguelike deckbuilder from Indonesia&#8217;s Mankibo. Assemble a team of unique Montabi and master their abilities across tactical turn-based combat encounters. If you&#8217;re into Pok\u00e9mon and card games, this one is practically made for you.<\/p>\n<h3>Building Relationships \u2014 Tan Ant Games<\/h3>\n<p>The most delightfully strange entry in the lineup: a solo-developed game from Thailand where you play as a sentient building that rolls, jumps, and wave-dashes \u2014 while romancing other structures. Yes, really. Solo developer Tanat Boozayaangool built this, and it already looks wonderfully unhinged.<\/p>\n<h3>Am I Nima \u2014 HO! Games &amp; Outersloth<\/h3>\n<p>A psychological horror game where a character must combine words in her mind to convince her mother of her identity. From HO! Games, led by Malaysian-Canadian director Jeremy Ho, this one looks like the kind of slow-burn, deeply personal horror that stays with you.<\/p>\n<h2>How to Watch the SEA Games Showcase 2026<\/h2>\n<p>The broadcast is completely free.
