Game developer TEAM42 revealed its booth lineup for G-STAR 2026, which opens on the 19th at BEXCO in Busan. Visitors to the booth will be able to experience a variety of offerings in one place, including a pop-up store for its flagship title 'Mafia42', a hands-on mobile demo and pre-registration kickoff for its upcoming title 'World of Slime', and the first public showcase of its new title 'Project Mecha Doge'.
The upcoming new title 'World of Slime' will launch its global pre-registration starting at G-STAR. Pre-registration participants will receive an item package to assist in gameplay along with an exclusive pre-registration costume item. 'World of Slime' is a cozy taming MMORPG where players explore a world filled with various slimes, capturing and fusing them. The central creatures of the game, slimes, do not evolve; instead, two slimes are fused together.
The G-STAR booth will be designed like an in-game village brought to life, offering a slime-fusion experience as well as mobile and PC demo versions. Attendees can play the first 20 minutes of the game during the demo, and those who complete the demo will receive limited-edition character merchandise, such as backpacks and squishy slime toys.
'Mafia42', the studio's flagship title currently in its 12th year of service, will feature a pop-up store and on-site events. This pop-up store will offer a different selection of merchandise from the Seongsu-dong pop-up held last February. Beyond the pop-up store, the venue will feature a trading zone where visitors can exchange purchased merchandise and interact with other players, alongside a gameplay room where visitors can play Mafia42 using top-tier in-game decks.
During the event, a player meetup will be held near BEXCO to gather invited users for conversations, and a live online stream will be broadcast for players unable to attend in person.
Meanwhile, TEAM42 will reveal its previously undisclosed new title 'Project Mecha Doge' to the public for the first time at G-STAR. 'Project Mecha Doge' is an action RPG where players defeat endless waves of enemies through melee attacks and shooting. In a world where humanity has vanished for mysterious reasons, players become a Shiba Inu who joins forces with fellow dogs to customize their specialized mechas and hunt down mecha cats.
At this event, visitors can enjoy a demo of roughly 20 minutes in a charming space that captures the game's overall atmosphere.
