With the broader Amusement Expo 2026 preview approaching, this update focuses on the redemption, crane and prize-vending games expected across the show floor. Redemption remains a major part of the amusement business, even when it receives less editorial attention than video arcade releases. Here is a look at the confirmed and anticipated highlights.
Andamiro USA
Andamiro USA is bringing one of the larger redemption-focused line-ups to the event. The company initially previewed an MLS-themed game through RePlay, but that title will not be shown at the expo and is instead expected to undergo testing later.
The booth will include established redemption products, Marksman from Superwin, previously seen at IAAPA, and Andamiro’s trading-card vending marble pusher inspired by How to Train Your Dragon. Recently shown at the NJAA Expo, the machine combines a traditional pusher with a Plinko-style mechanic, creating a hybrid “push-inko” experience.
A recent test video provides a closer look at the How to Train Your Dragon pusher.
Nickelodeon Kart Racers Arcade will also be available to view. The game has appeared at test locations and seems to have received further changes since its January appearance at MAGFest. It is also scheduled to appear on the Player One/Kiddleton booth alongside games distributed by other companies. Whether tickets are enabled remains unclear.
Bay Tek Entertainment
Bay Tek Entertainment’s presentation is expected to resemble its IAAPA showing, with Skeeball products and redemption games including Nailed It! and Perfect Pump. The company is also introducing a single-player version of its video redemption title, ICEE Slush Rush.
The new version can be ordered with a printer. At venues that sell ICEE drinks, the printer can issue coupon or voucher tickets redeemable for actual ICEEs. It is a notable way to connect gameplay with on-site sales, and raises the question of whether licensed drink games such as Perfect Pour and Soda Slam! could adopt a similar approach.
Footage of the standard two-player version is available below.
Toccata Gaming International
Toccata Gaming International is returning to the arcade conversation after several quieter years. The company first drew industry attention with Pong 180, released a little over a decade ago and followed by a wave of beer-pong arcade products. It later developed redemption titles including Zombie Snatcher with ICE, then worked with ICE on Tomy Waterfuls Ring Toss, released in 2018.
Its new project is Zombie Snatcher Outbreak, a sequel of sorts to the earlier game. There is a video of this on LinkedIn, showing six player positions, a refreshed cabinet design and pucks containing small LED screens.
Toccata will be exhibiting at a friend’s booth, so visitors may need to look around the show floor rather than rely on a dedicated stand.
Other redemption and crane exhibitors
Several other exhibitors are primarily associated with redemption products and cranes. Based on the available information, their planned displays are expected to feature games already shown at IAAPA, although unexpected additions are always possible.

Companies such as Komuse do not appear on the official map, so their presence in an official exhibiting capacity cannot be confirmed.
TouchMagix
TouchMagix is concentrating on its latest redemption releases at Amusement Expo 2026, while also continuing development work on new games. Its presentation is expected to be similar to the company’s IAAPA and IAAPI show displays.
The event runs from 18–19 March 2026 at the Las Vegas Convention Center. TouchMagix will be at booth 2001 with a selection of its established titles, including Minions Bullseye Mania, a family-oriented game based on the Minions licence; Pickle Ball Toss, a carnival-themed prize game; four-player vending game Crazy Prize; Treasure Chest; and Boxed Up.
The company positions these games around skill-based play, repeat engagement and operator returns. Pickle Ball Toss will also be competing for attention with UNIS’s separate pickleball-themed title, Pickleball Rivals.
