Alaya Lab Brings Brainwave-Controlled Games To Tokyo Game Show 2026
The booth moves the argument about AI and biological input past production tools and into the control layer itself, which is where a game's feel is actually decided.

Alaya Lab exhibited at Tokyo Game Show 2026, held September 17 to 21, showing hands-on demos that read biological signals. NeuroWizards is an action game where an EEG headset sets a character's magic attribute, closing the eyes charges power, turning the face aims, and blinking casts. The booth also showed Kaiso Taxi, Mushin Capsule x Neu World, and a capsule-toy machine driven by brainwaves.
An EEG headset comes first. Before the demo starts, its readings fix both the in-game character's movement and the magic attribute the player will cast with. From there the controller is gone: eyes closed to charge, face turned to aim, a blink to fire.
The rest of the booth works the same territory. Kaiso Taxi reads brainwaves to pick up a passenger's real feelings, Mushin Capsule x Neu World pairs brainwaves with image recognition, and a capsule-toy machine dispenses only if the player drops their greed and goes selfless.
