The short answer
Yes. lowiro takes In Falsus to Tokyo Game Show 2026. The team announced it on the official lowiro staff X account on September 3, and the show listing puts the booth at Hall 3, Booth C-01 at Makuhari Messe in Chiba. Arcaea is playable at the same booth, making it a two-game stand for lowiro's rhythm lineup.
Live Updates Tracker (TGS 2026 Week)

September 22, 2026 (final entry — tracker closed): The headliner number is now official. CESA's closing release (official RELEASE, published September 20) states that Typhoon No. 25 cancelled the September 21 finale outright, and that the four days actually run (September 17–20, across Makuhari Messe and TKP Tokyo Bay Makuhari Hall) drew 257,642 visitors — an organiser-published figure, not a press estimate. The 30th anniversary edition hosted 1,138 companies and organisations from 53 countries and regions and logged 3,673 matchmaking deals, which CESA calls an all-time high, and streams 25 official programmes across the run (the organiser's whole-show figure). September 21 itself was handled the way CESA described it — official programmes that need no attendance went out as scheduled, on a schedule that closed with the 15:00–15:30 JST ending stage, which the official account @tokyo_game_show has left up as an archive stream alongside a sign-off post reading "Let's meet again — thank you to everyone who took part in #TGS2026." On lowiro's side, @lowiro_staff published its bilingual sign-off on the evening of September 20 ("Tokyo Game Show has come to an end! …今年のTGSは終了しました。") and @infalsus_en added a same-day thank-you carrying the Steam discount link — neither post contains a visitor count or a demo-play count, so the open question left in the September 21 entry is now closed: the booth is not going to publish that number. One last piece of show-floor coverage landed on the evening of September 21: Nikkei Cross Trend / Nikkei Gaming ran its Hall 3 report on the lowiro stand (article, words and photos by Ayaka Shinada). It describes five character banners hung on each side of the booth, contrasts Arcaea's tablet tapping at speed with In Falsus's keyboard-plus-mouse setup, quotes players on the floor saying it looked like it "would take time to get used to" and that it was "hard", and cites a booth staffer on the split between the two games: both have stories, but In Falsus is the more story-led because its narrative runs through five separate protagonists. The piece also notes the shared design quirk of both titles splitting notes into an upper and a lower row. Over at 4Gamer, meanwhile, the site's In Falsus index carries no TGS coverage at all — its most recent entry is still the September 9 launch report. That ends the live tracker. Across the September 22 sweep (Google News Japanese, English and Chinese indexes, the CESA news list, and the lowiro and In Falsus X accounts) nothing new about In Falsus at TGS was published. This page now stands as the show record; the 10 percent launch discount on the Steam page runs until September 23, and after that booth news resumes only through @lowiro_staff.

September 21, 2026 (Public Day 3 — CANCELLED): CESA announced the final day of TGS 2026 was cancelled outright due to the approach of Typhoon No. 25 (official notice; reported by Famitsu, Nikkei, 4Gamer, and Game*Spark). September 20 (Sunday) ran as scheduled and became the show's actual final open day — public attendance days went from three to two in this 30th-anniversary edition. September 21 public tickets are being refunded through official TGS channels, and some stage programs moved online. For In Falsus, the concrete casualty is the commemorative card's September 21 daily quota: the limited In Falsus × Arcaea double-sided clear card was last distributed on September 20. Show wrap-up: over four open days (September 17–18 business, 19–20 public), the lowiro booth at Hall 3 C-01 ran 6 In Falsus stations on the 12-track Show Floor Build alongside 4 Arcaea stations, with numbered queue passes (整理券) reported on both public days (on-site accounts; no official post). (That wait is over: lowiro's closing thank-you went out on September 20 and it carries no attendance or demo-play figures — see the September 22 final entry.)

September 20, 2026 (Public Day 2): As of early afternoon (14:35 JST), no new In Falsus TGS dedicated media articles have gone up — no updates from 4Gamer, Famitsu, or Dengeki Online. The public-day crowd and numbered queue pass (整理券) posture reportedly continues to track Public Day 1's record: the standard play remains arriving before the 9:30 public-day opening, entering via the Hall 3 south entrance, and having your Steam app open in advance. On the Arcaea side of the booth, the advance-distribution song "Château de cartes" by Inverted Silence ft. Pernelle is playable in Arcaea as of September 19 (redeem via QR code at the booth). On media feedback: Dengeki Online's early review of In Falsus (published 2026-09-05 11:30 JST, words by Emu, its "Dengeki Indie #1470" slot) scores it 8 points on the site's 10-point recommendation scale (article) — verified against the article text on 2026-09-22, which supersedes this page's earlier "mid-September / editor's pick / rating to be added" phrasing. Rolling tracking continues: September 21 is the final public day, with the post-show wrap-up on September 22.

September 19, 2026 (Public Day 1): Makuhari Messe doors opened at 9:30 JST to massive crowds (the official public-day window was 9:30–17:00; the 10:00 start belongs to the business days). The lowiro booth at Hall 3, Booth C-01 experienced immediate line congestion from opening hour. On-site eyewitness reports (with no corroborating official or media posts) say numbered admission tickets (整理券 / numbered queue passes) were instituted for the 6 In Falsus trial stations within a few hours of opening to manage waits, with peak standby reported at over an hour. The limited In Falsus × Arcaea double-sided clear commemorative card daily quota is distributing rapidly; booth staff verify Steam Library or Wishlist proof on visitor phones before gifting. On-site observation: visitors playing the 12-track TGS Show Floor Build mostly stuck to lower- and mid-difficulty charts (eyewitness note, not corroborated by official or media coverage). Tips for Day 4 (Sep 20) and Day 5 (Sep 21): Arrive before the 9:30 opening, head straight to Hall 3 south entrance, and prepare your Steam app with In Falsus wishlisted/owned open in advance to speed up the booth line. Correction (2026-09-20, checked against the Dengeki interview text): the TGS interview (published September 18) confirms on the record that the trial build includes the rhythm-game "boss song" Latent Duality — Guy: 「音楽ゲームでいう"ボス曲"の『Latent Duality』が入っています」 — that the playable set is the songs up through Act 1 plus Latent Duality (the interview explains the progress threshold), and that test-playing In Falsus earns a random character card (試遊するとキャラクターカードがランダムでもらえます). This supersedes this page's earlier "unconfirmed" framing of the interview.

September 17, 2026 (Show Day 1 — Business Day): Doors are open at Makuhari Messe. Show-floor media coverage (Dengeki Online) confirms the booth's novelty lineup: every visitor to Hall 3 C-01 can pick up a key-visual cutout clear file, and In Falsus demo players receive a character card (Arcaea players get a can badge, plus a [Balor] jacket sticker via its SNS campaign, and Arcaea's advance-distribution song is being handed out at the booth). lowiro staff are on the floor meeting players. Detailed first-day station reports are still thin — business days require trade registration — and this tracker updates as public days begin September 19.
-
September 15, 2026 (D-2 Countdown): lowiro confirmed on @lowiro_staff on X that the booth features 6 dedicated In Falsus stations (mechanical keyboards + high-polling gaming mice) alongside 4 Arcaea stations running a custom TGS Show Floor Build. The build includes 12 unlocked showcase tracks across Prologue and Act 1–2 (including Cryogenic, Ghost Ray, ZFC, à la mode, and Lost Garden) with all difficulty tiers open and optional Assist Mode toggles. Visitors who test-play one track and show Steam library or wishlist proof will receive an official In Falsus × Arcaea double-sided clear commemorative card (daily supplies limited).
Dates, hall and booth
TGS 2026 runs September 17–21 at Makuhari Messe and marks the show's 30th anniversary:
- Business days: September 17–18 — trade registration required
- Public days: September 19–20 ran as scheduled; September 21 was cancelled for Typhoon No. 25 (refunds via official TGS channels)
- Booth: Hall 3, C-01
What's playable
Per Game*Spark's TGS coverage and lowiro's own show announcements, both In Falsus and Arcaea have playable stations at the booth.
On September 15, lowiro confirmed that booth stations run a dedicated TGS Show Floor Build featuring 12 showcase tracks (spanning Prologue and Act 1–2, including Cryogenic, Ghost Ray, ZFC, à la mode, and Lost Garden) with all difficulty tiers open and optional Assist Mode toggles — an accessible convention preview rather than the sprawling 70+ song Steam client. At BitSummit PUNCH in May, community photos of the booth's Blueprint screen matched early demos, whereas the TGS build showcases polished v1.0.3+ mechanics.
Booth Giveaways & Merchandise
The confirmed lineup now has three tiers. Tier 1: every visitor to Hall 3 C-01 picks up a key-visual cutout clear file (per opening-day show-floor coverage from Dengeki Online). Tier 2: playing the In Falsus demo earns a random character card (the Dengeki interview confirms the card is random) — with the Arcaea side offering a can badge for demo play, a [Balor] jacket sticker through its SNS campaign, and its advance-distribution song "Château de cartes" (Inverted Silence ft. Pernelle), playable in Arcaea from September 19 via QR redemption. Tier 3, per lowiro's September 15 announcement: anyone who completes a single demo run at the In Falsus stations and shows the game on their Steam wishlist or library to staff receives an official In Falsus × Arcaea double-sided clear commemorative card (daily supplies capped). No standalone merchandise sales have been scheduled at Hall 3 C-01, so beware of unofficial resellers claiming to offer "TGS-exclusive" merch. Booth news continues to be tracked via @lowiro_staff on X.
Going? What to expect
In Falsus is a keyboard-and-mouse rhythm game — left hand on up to six keys, right hand on the mouse — so booth stations play very differently from the touch and controller rhythm games around it. If it is your first time touching the game, beginner tips covers the hand-position basics in five minutes, and the spoiler-aware Act 1 walkthrough gives you the story shape before you play the show build.
Can't make it to Chiba?
You are not missing the game itself: In Falsus is out now on Steam, released September 9, 2026, and the 10 percent launch discount runs until September 23. The old demo was removed when the full game launched, so the show floor is the only public place to play a pre-release slice — everything else lives on Steam. If you are still deciding, the release date and price guide has regional pricing, and the song unlock guide explains how the 70+ song list opens up.
Frequently asked questions
Will In Falsus be at Tokyo Game Show 2026?
Yes — lowiro announced on its official staff account on September 3 that In Falsus is exhibiting at Makuhari Messe from September 17 to 21.
Where is the lowiro booth at TGS 2026?
Hall 3, Booth C-01. The booth is shared with Arcaea, so look for signage that features both games.
What is playable at the booth?
6 dedicated In Falsus stations and 4 Arcaea stations. In Falsus runs a dedicated 12-track TGS Show Floor Build featuring tracks like Cryogenic, Ghost Ray, ZFC, and Lost Garden with MIN, EVO, and ULT difficulties open. Per the Dengeki interview (text verified 2026-09-20), the trial set is the songs up through Act 1 topped off with the rhythm-game "boss song" Latent Duality.
Are there any booth giveaways or merchandise?
Yes — three layers. Visitors to Hall 3 C-01 receive a key-visual cutout clear file; playing the In Falsus demo earns a random character card; and completing a trial play plus showing In Falsus on your Steam wishlist or library gets the limited-edition double-sided clear commemorative card (daily limited supplies — have the Steam app open before you reach staff). Arcaea offers a can badge for demo play and a [Balor] sticker via SNS campaign, and its advance-distribution song "Château de cartes" is playable in Arcaea from September 19 via QR redemption. No physical merch sales are scheduled.
How long is the wait on public days?
On Public Day 1 (September 19), after opening-hour congestion, on-site reports say numbered queue passes (整理券) were issued for the 6 In Falsus stations within a few hours of opening, with peak standby reported at over an hour (eyewitness accounts; no official post). On Public Day 2 (September 20) the situation reportedly continued to track the Day 1 record — and that day closed out the show, since Typhoon No. 25 cancelled the September 21 finale.
Was TGS 2026 affected by the typhoon?
Yes — CESA cancelled the final day (Monday, September 21) due to Typhoon No. 25, making September 20 the show's last open day. September 21 tickets are being refunded via official TGS channels, and In Falsus's September 21 commemorative-card quota was never handed out.
Can I play the full game without going to TGS?
Yes — the full game launched on Steam on September 9, 2026 at $39.99 with a 10 percent launch discount until September 23. Steam is the definitive way to play all 70+ songs.
This page is now frozen (show record)
The show has wrapped: TGS 2026 ended one day early when Typhoon No. 25 cancelled the September 21 finale, and CESA put the four-day total at 257,642 visitors. lowiro's post-show thank-you landed on September 20 with no attendance or demo-play numbers in it, so the live tracker stops here and this page stands as the show record. It gets reopened only if lowiro announces a TGS2027 appearance (the organiser has already penciled in September 16–20, 2027) or says where the Show Floor Build pops up next. For everything else, In Falsus on Steam is the way to play.
