Psychic Force 2012 Appears Playable at Tokyo Game Show 2026
A series that went dormant after its NESiCAxLive re-release is now positioned for a current-platform return, and the TGS demo indicates the movement and psychic-combat structure came through the revival without major changes.
Reporting from 1 source: Inside.
Psychic Force 2012 was playable at Tokyo Game Show 2026, weeks after Konami revealed a 2027 release for Switch, PS5, and Steam. The trial version is limited to four Arcade Mode stages, with all 13 characters selectable from Might to Burn to Keith. The 360-degree movement, wide field, and long-range psychic exchanges that defined the original remain intact in the current-gen build.
The build on the Konami booth is a TGS-exclusive version, so only four Arcade Mode stages were available. Character selection was not restricted, and on-screen control displays for both fighters remove the guesswork for anyone who never learned the inputs.
Within a set range, fighters move freely in 360 degrees across a field wider than most competitive fighting games. Long-range psychic attacks sit alongside close-range strikes, and techniques carry recovery and openings at any distance, so positioning and the choice between striking, throwing, dashing, or firing shift constantly.
