Kyoto, Japan — May 27, 2026 | During BitSummit in Kyoto, Japan, publisher Acclaim, Inc. unveiled an all-new gameplay trailer for HYPERyuki: Snowboard Syndicate, the explosive new arcade snowboarding game making its way to PC and all major consoles.
Developed by Mexican indie studio Wabisabi Games (RKGK / Rakugaki), HYPERyuki: Snowboard Syndicate pays homage to the fast-paced gameplay and trick-fueled action of classics like SSX and Jet Grind Radio.
“As Mexican 90s kids, we grew up watching anime on national TV and playing Japanese games nonstop,” said Anward Noriega, CEO and co-founder of Wabisabi Games. “We’ve always been deeply in love with Japanese pop culture, so having the chance to showcase HYPERyuki to a Japanese audience at BitSummit truly feels like a full-circle moment.”
The HYPERyuki BitSummit trailer carves through the competition with unmatched style, showcasing the game’s diverse roster of snowboarders, a selection of snowy locales to shred your way through, and more gravity-defying tricks than you can shake a snowboard at.
