One company that usually unveils their lineups for Western shows pretty close to the wire is Bandai Namco, and today, as IAAPA 2025 closes in, we finally have confirmation of what one will find at booths #1300 & #1600. There are plenty of titles we have previously seen and heard about, but also a couple of surprises that they are now carrying, as can be seen in our preview scoop below \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
Before we fully dive in, a little thing worth noting. If you\u2019re new to the current arcade industry, the Bandai Namco coverage you\u2019ll see from us in the coming weeks might be confusing, as they will have games from Raw Thrills and Adrenaline Amusements on their booth. This is because of how the arcade arm of Bandai Namco (officially known as Bandai Namco Experience, but also as Bandai Namco Amusement America and Bandai Namco Amusement Europe) operates. In Europe, BNAE is a distributor that represents the likes of Raw Thrills and Adrenaline; IAAPA is an international show, so they present those and perhaps some other non-Namco games there for their buyers to see.<\/p>\n
With that now out of the way, let\u2019s see what they\u2019ve got:<\/p>\n
Speed Rider 4DX<\/h3>\n
For one of the games we previously heard about, IGS and Baohui\u2019s Speed Rider 4DX<\/em> is taking an unusual route in coming to the West, in that it has different distributors for every country\/continent; whilst Sega Amusements and a few others are selling it into the UK and Europe, Bandai Namco are the ones who will distribute the game in North America. It\u2019s been a while since they last had a motorcycle racer on the market here; following Dead Heat Unleashed<\/em>, one might\u2019ve thought they\u2019d make a sequel to Dead Heat Riders <\/em>(or maybe Nirin<\/em>, for a deeper cut), but evidently not, as they are pushing this.<\/p>\n
