SEA Games Showcase 2025: All Games & Announcements

There are a few certainties in life: death, taxes, and the Southeast Asian games industry quietly flexing harder than your average AAA studio with 10 times the budget. Enter SEA Games Showcase 2025, where over 40 titles from the region’s most wonderfully unhinged minds were paraded in a glorious mess of creativity, chaos, and questionable voice acting.

You want metroidvanias with batik-powered grappling hooks? Sorted. Farming sims that double as ghost stories? Got those too. And yes—there’s at least one game where you fight capitalist oppression using a mystical rice cooker. If you blinked during the stream, you probably missed three bangers and a horror game about haunted karaoke.

So, for your sanity (and because you probably didn’t have time to watch a two-hour stream while pretending to work), here’s everything that was announced—boiled down, trimmed up, and given a bit of flair.

 

Coral Island v1.2 Adds Multiplayer Romance Chaos

You can now run your farm with up to four players—complete with crossplay—and, yes, you can marry and even raise kids with them in Coral Island‘s latest update. It also brings a spooky seasonal festival featuring costumes for kids and love interests, plus new hangout events and special relationship moments once you’ve locked in your in-game soulmate.

You can purchase the game on Steam for RM65.00.

 

New Coffee Talk Tokyo Gameplay Trailer
