While a lot of the arcade games shown at EAG had already been revealed at 2016 IAAPA just three months before, for many this was their first showing in Europe.

There were also a number of new games, that have barely any information available other than what has been posted on the internet by visitors to EAG, revealed at the show including:

Splash (by Raw Thrills / InJoy, shown by Bandai Namco)

Splash is a new racing boat game from Raw Thrills and InJoy. It is an action packed jet ski simulator with real-time motion feedback. Roll and pitch motions to replicate jet ski movements.
