At PlayXpo 2026, Bandai Namco Entertainment Korea offered a quiet reminder that the oldest form of persuasion — letting people touch and feel a thing — still holds power in an age of digital saturation. By placing their upcoming Captain Tsubasa 2: World Fighters beside beloved franchises like Tekken 8 and One Piece Pirate Warriors 4, the publisher created a space where novelty and familiarity could speak to one another, drawing visitors across generations into a single booth and a single conversation about what games can be.
