Edia has confirmed the development of the Psikyo Memories Collection, featuring classic arcade shooters set to release in 2027.
Edia has officially announced the development of the Psikyo Memories Collection, a compilation of classic arcade shooters from the '90s. This news was first revealed by Anime News Network on September 18, 2026. The collection will notably include titles such as Strikers 1945 and Gunbird.
According to details shared at the Tokyo Game Show 2026, the Psikyo Memories Collection is scheduled for release in 2027 on both the PlayStation 5 and the Nintendo Switch 2. This development marks another iteration in the ongoing legacy of Psikyo’s arcade shooters, which have a rich history in gaming.
In addition to the key games mentioned, the Psikyo Memories Collection will feature a gallery of archival materials from the classic games. This aims to offer fans a deeper look into the history and development of these iconic shooters, appealing to both nostalgic players and new audiences alike.
The announcement highlights that this is not the first time Psikyo’s games have been bundled. Previous collections have been released on various platforms, including the PlayStation 2, PlayStation 4, and the Nintendo Switch. Notably, the recent titles Psikyo Shooting Stars Alpha and Psikyo Shooting Stars Bravo launched on the Nintendo Switch in 2020 and on PS4 in 2022, showcasing the enduring popularity of these classic games.
The collection's announcement adds to the anticipation surrounding the Psikyo Shooting Collection, initially planned for the PlayStation 5 in 2020 but that has yet to materialize. The earlier collection was expected to include a variety of titles such as Strikers 1945 II, Gunbird 2, and several others spanning Psikyo’s innovative arcade catalog.
The development of the Psikyo Memories Collection is significant for both long-time fans of the genre and newcomers curious about classic arcade shooters. By revitalizing these games for modern consoles, Edia is acknowledging the nostalgia of dedicated fans while introducing these beloved titles to a new gaming audience. Overall, the announcement may invigorate interest in retro gaming collections, further solidifying Psikyo’s legacy in the competitive gaming industry.
The next steps will see Edia sharing more details as the release date approaches, including specifics on additional titles to be included in the collection and further promotional activities around both the PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch 2 versions. As it stands, the excitement surrounding this announcement could pave the way for additional remastering efforts in the future, building upon the strong foundation laid by previous collections.
