Experience the First-Ever Immersive UFO Catcher at AMUSEMENT EXPO 2025

A Groundbreaking Attraction at AMUSEMENT EXPO 2025

The much-anticipated AMUSEMENT EXPO 2025 is set to showcase an innovative and immersive attraction from SEGA, celebrating the 40th anniversary of the iconic UFO Catcher game. Dubbed UFO CATCHER IMMERSIVE, this unique experience invites players to become part of the game like never before.

From November 14 to 15, 2025, visitors will have the chance to immerse themselves in an exciting new role where they will be the “captured” instead of the capturer. Located at the SEGA Fave booth in Tokyo Big Sight's East Hall 4-5, this attraction promises a thrilling encounter for everyone.

What is UFO CATCHER IMMERSIVE?

The UFO CATCHER IMMERSIVE introduces a novel twist to the traditional arcade experience by allowing players to enter the prize area, effectively transforming them into the prize. The objective? To charm human players into ‘catching’ them before a mischievous monster has the chance to whisk them away!

As participants navigate through the first half of the game, they must evade capture by the monster, using agility and strategy to avoid being caught. Once the monster's turn is over, the tables turn, and the human players have their shot. Participants need to showcase their appeal in order to attract the attention of the human operator and successfully get ‘caught’ in the game.

Those who dare to participate will receive a limited-edition sticker as a reward for their brave adventure into the UFO catcher world.

However, UFO CATCHER IMMERSIVE is not without its rules. Players are advised to:

- Wear suitable attire and comfortable shoes suitable for movement. Heels and other restrictive footwear may not be allowed.
- Refrain from wearing anything with strings or cords that might entangle others.
- Store personal belongings with companions or in designated areas to prevent accidents.
- Manage their valuables independently.

The Fascinating UFO CATCHER MUSEUM

Alongside the interactive experience, attendees are invited to explore the UFO CATCHER MUSEUM, which commemorates 40 years of the beloved UFO catcher through engaging exhibits. This showcases everything from epoch-making machines to timelines outlining the development of this phenomenon.

Participants can look forward to a fun yet informative display featuring actual UFO catcher machines, control parts (also known as compane), and heartfelt stories shared by players who have fond memories of their experiences.

The museum offers a unique opportunity to dive deep into the rich history of UFO Catchers, highlighting evolves and innovations that have shaped the gaming experience over the decades.
