Marvelous USA and XSEED Games have announced the games that will be at PAX this year, which is scheduled to run from Friday, August 30th through Monday September 2nd.
While most of the games available will be playable at their booth, Farmagia will instead be an experimental photo experience with cosplayers to help immerse players in the land of Felicidad.
Those attending the event will also have a chance to win prizes, with more information to be revealed at the booth itself.
The Pax Lineup via Marvelous and XSEED is as follows:
Corpse Party 2: Darkness Distortion [Multiplatform (Playable) - Fall 2024]
The cult-classic Japanese horror franchise returns with new characters, a new setting, and a terrifying new curse presented in full 3D! Will high school friends Haruka, Nemu, and Maria survive their “stay” in the Amare Est Vivere Hospital, or will they meet an unfortunate end at the hand of “Ayame’s Mercy”? The game will be released on the PlayStation®4, Nintendo Switch™ system, and Windows PC.
Death the Guitar [Platforms TBA (Playable) - 2025]
Play as a killer electric guitar whose owner was murdered in this violent 2D platformer action game. Manipulate sound and electricity to exact revenge on humans, utilizing terrain and mobility to dispatch enemies before they know what hit them. There are only three controls in the game—move, jump and GUITAR. Toroya My Battery is Fried is a graduate of Marvelous’ iGi (Indie Game Incubator) program.
Moonlight Peaks [Windows PC (Playable) - 2026]
Moonlight Peaks takes place in its titular town, home to vampires, werewolves, mermaids, and other supernatural denizens who mostly come out at night—where the unnatural is the norm. As the grown-up progeny of Count Dracula, players will have to prove to their skeptical father that an (un-)life of compassion is possible, even for the undead. While players design their perfect vampire lair and learn the art of farming magical crops and witchcraft, they'll get to know the eclectic mix of human and supernatural residents that also call Moonlight Peaks home, and maybe even find their eternal love!
Potionomics: Masterwork Edition [Multiplatform (Playable) - Fall 2024]
The art of Potionomics begins with perfecting your potion-brewing craft and building your deck of haggling cards to help you make the most of each sale. In order to succeed in Rafta’s lively economy you’ll need to get to know the colorful residents who will help you collect recipes, elite ingredients, and even special cards for your deck. Whether it’s your first day on the job or you’re a sorcerer’s salesman, the magic of capitalism has never been more alive than in Potionomics: Masterwork Edition. The game will be released on PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch™.
Slitterhead [PS5 (Playable) - Nov. 8, 2024]
From the mind of legendary creator Keiichiro Toyama comes his latest spine-tingling action-horror title. Explore the densely cluttered streets of Kowlong as the formless entity known as the Hyoki, taking control of unsuspecting civilians to battle the monsters masquerading as humans, known as Slitterheads. Expose the Slitterheads’ true forms and defeat them using the blood of the bodies Hyoki inhabits as a weapon, all while investigating the mystery behind their appearance in Kowlong. XSEED Games is publishing the physical Day 1 Edition on PlayStation®5.
The Big Catch [Windows PC (Playable) - 2025]
Adventure through a desert world as Caster, running errands to collect ingredients for his enigmatic employer Chef Leurre and discovering long-lost secrets along the way. Inspired by the creative 3D platformers of the 5th and 6th console generation, players will navigate a wasteland using fast, acrobatic movements to flip, swim, spin, and fight their way forward. A fisherman by trade, Caster’s rod doubles as both a weapon to defend himself and a powerful tool to overcome platforming obstacles in his search for the one thing that still has value in the wasteland: FISH.
Ys Memoire: The Oath in Felghana [Multiplatform (Playable) - Early 2025]
A classic action-RPG returns with remastered visuals and music, new character illustrations, and new voice acting for protagonist Adol.

The two find themselves embroiled in a world of conspiracies and ancient legacies, taking them on an epic journey. The game will be released on PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, and Nintendo Switch™ system.
Farmagia [Multiplatform - Nov. 1, 2024]
Featuring character and monster designs from iconic manga artist Hiro Mashima, Farmagia is a brand-new monster-farming and action game.
