Andamiro Unveils Avengers Cards Series 2 for Its Blockbuster…

Andamiro is pleased to reveal the upcoming introduction of Avengers Cards Series 2 — a refreshed in-game card set featuring the same legendary Marvel characters in all-new comic-style poses that will reinvigorate gameplay. Series 2 features the same nine legendary Marvel characters introduced in the original set — now depicted in dynamic new poses with striking comic-style artwork that leaps off the playfield. The new cards began shipping with custom orders in February 2026. The lineup includes Black Panther, Captain America, Captain Marvel, Doctor Strange, Hawkeye, Hulk, Iron Man and Thor — plus the rare Thanos card, which remains the most coveted of the bunch. The card backs retain the original character stats and fun factoids but are presented on an updated graphic background, giving the set a bold refresh while keeping the content consistent.   Created in partnership with Disney and Marvel, and introduced in 2020, Andamiro’s Avengers arcade game is available in two-player and one-player cabinets and continues to be a top-performing title in the pusher redemption category. Players shoot tokens, collect Infinity Stones and push cards off the ledge, which can be redeemed for tickets. A complete set of nine cards still awards a 3,000-ticket bonus (redemption values may vary by location).   “In-game cards have become a sought-after game feature by players and a proven replay driver for operators,” said Andamiro USA president Drew Maniscalco. “Andamiro has been a pioneer in the arcade card-game category, and the launch of Series 2 gives the Avengers game new life and extended earning power.”   Each new Avengers machine ships with a complimentary box (150 cards) per game side.

Redeem Machine v2: Andamiro’s Next-Generation Card-to-Ticket…

Andamiro Co. Ltd. is pleased to announce the introduction of Redeem Machine 2, their next-generation self-service kiosk for arcades and family entertainment centers. Redeem Machine, aka card kiosk version 2, will be officially unveiled at the 2025 IAAPA Expo in Orlando, FL.   Released in 2019, the original Redeem Machine was one of the first automated systems designed to accept, read and convert barcoded or RFID-tagged cards and color-coded redemption chips into digital ticket value. With a focus on labor reduction and loss prevention for FEC operators, the kiosk streamlined counter traffic and gave players a fast and intuitive way to process redemption items.   Redeem Machine 2 carries forward the core technology and features of the original while adding video display capabilities, USB/email-based data export and software/content updates via internet or USB. Operators can now configure up to three custom product tiers—Normal, Special and Super Bonus—and load idle-loop video content on the top display to promote their brand or reward structure.   Within its defined functions, Andamiro’s kiosk v2 is compatible with most industry-standard cashless swipe/tap card systems, including Amusement Connect, Embed, Intercard, Sacoa and Semnox. The kiosk can also accommodate two optional ticket dispensers for venues still operating with traditional paper tickets. A lockable USB port remains part of the unit’s standard security features and a serial port is included.     The Redeem Machine 2 measures 33” wide, 28” deep and 85” tall (825 x 708 x 2169 mm), and weighs approximately 287 lbs. (130 kg). It features a 27” touch interface and a 23.8” top monitor, both optimized for durability and high visibility in busy locations.   Redeem Machine™ is a trademark of Andamiro. Redeem Machine 2 will be on display in booth No. 1800 at IAAPA Expo, taking place from Nov. 18 to 21 at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando. The new model is expected to begin shipping in early 2026, with upgrade kits for first-generation kiosks to follow shortly thereafter.    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5x94-5MG3bY

Andamiro Introduces SpongeBob-Themed ‘Swish’ Game with Mecha…

SpongeBob Swish is a basketball-inspired redemption game that blends mechanical gameplay with the excitement of arcade hoops. Swish delivers a uniquely accessible experience with automated ball handling and recycling, dynamic scoring and an animated bonus feature—all within a compact, two-player cabinet. Swish challenges players to shoot and score using familiar joystick and button controls. Each successful shot advances the player along a scoreboard column — 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 — culminating in a chance to spin the game’s mechanical bonus reel for big-ticket prizes. With adjustable play settings and a wide appeal across age groups, Swish is designed to drive repeat plays and operator ROI.   Each player side—Patrick on the left, SpongeBob on the right—features three basket targets in red, yellow and blue, matching their respective scoreboard columns. The baskets are mounted to a backboard assembly that moves side to side, while the separate ball delivery track also shifts laterally, adding an extra layer of challenge. While each ball shot follows a consistent arc and trajectory, landing a swish requires near-perfect timing—easier said than done.   SpongeBob Swish is equipped with operator-friendly features, including customizable crediting and ticket settings, a real-time bookkeeping menu, built-in diagnostics and an adjustable mercy ticket option. The game is suited for arcades, family entertainment centers or any venue seeking a sports-themed attraction that combines skill, competitive play and SpongeBob’s universal charm.   Bright and eye-catching, Swish boasts a prominent SpongeBob marquee, bold character artwork and glowing LED cabinet trim to command attention. Its electromechanical components and gravity-fed ball mechanics enhance the visual spectacle and tactile gameplay. The cabinet measures W 1297 mm × D 1015 mm × H 2450 mm (W 51.1 in × D 40.0 in × H 96.5 in), weighs 236kg(470 lbs.) and draws 300W (2.4A) of power.   About SpongeBob SquarePantsSince its launch July 17, 1999, SpongeBob SquarePants has reigned as the most-watched animated series for 22 consecutive years, while generating a universe of beloved characters, pop culture catchphrases and memes, theatrical releases, consumer products, a Tony award-winning Broadway musical and a global fan base.

PUMP IT UP R!SE: The Arcade Dance Revolution Lands on Steam

After 25 years as a staple in arcades around the world, Pump It Up is stepping onto a new stage: the PC. With the launch of Pump It Up: R!SE in Early Access on Steam, Andamiro is officially bringing its legendary rhythm game franchise to a global home audience. For longtime fans, it’s a long-awaited move. For newcomers, it’s a chance to discover the five-panel dance game that helped define the genre — no dance pad required.     A New Platform, A New Chapter Pump It Up: R!SE is the first official PC adaptation of Andamiro’s iconic arcade game. Developed by the M-Team at Andamiro HQ in South Korea, the title was built from the ground up for keyboard, gamepad and Steam Deck play.   Steam, for those unfamiliar, is the world’s largest digital platform for PC games — a virtual storefront and community hub developed by Valve, the company behind Half-Life and Portal. Steam also powers the Steam Deck, Valve’s handheld PC gaming device that runs full Steam games on the go. With compatibility across all three input styles, R!SE brings Pump It Up to living rooms, laptops, and backpacks.   Challenges of the Home Experience According to Andamiro’s Music-Team leader Mr. Changhee Son (a.k.a. Macnom), one of the biggest development challenges was rethinking the game’s user interface. “Unlike other rhythm games,” he explained, “we needed a design that could display well on both Steam Deck’s small screen and large PC monitors.” The UI had to be clean, readable and intuitive across all devices. The team also had to reconsider how Pump It Up’s signature charting — often designed for footwork — would feel using thumbs and fingers. “We spent a lot of time adjusting chart layouts to play naturally on keyboard and gamepad,” Mr. Son said. Especially on gamepads, where only two thumbs control movement, higher-difficulty charts had to be rebalanced to retain the game’s intensity without overwhelming the controls.   A Soundtrack Built for R!SE R!SE launches with more than 200 songs, and while it retains the visual and mechanical DNA of the arcade series, the music library takes a new direction. K-pop tracks — a defining element of the Pump It Up arcade experience — are largely absent for now due to licensing challenges. Instead, R!SE features original compositions by renowned rhythm game artists, offering a more casual and varied sound palette. It’s different from the arcade formula, but still true to the spirit of discovery and musical diversity.     What R!SE Stands For Beyond gameplay, R!SE carries symbolic weight. “The title literally expresses our hope that a new generation of players will be attracted through the Steam platform,” the M-Team chief said. Even the stylized title — replacing the “I” with an exclamation point — nods to the original PUMP IT UP! title from 1999. “We wanted to remember the starting point of the series while welcoming a new era.”   Looking Ahead Now available in Early Access, Pump It Up: R!SE will continue to evolve with player feedback. The team plans regular updates leading up to its full release, targeted for January 2026. The Early Access version supports multiple languages, includes full control remapping and features gameplay modes tailored for different skill levels — including Warm-Up, Division and Challenge.   Whether you’re a veteran PIU dancer or a newcomer curious about rhythm games, R!SE makes it easier than ever to step in.   Check out these links: Play Now on SteamGame Introduction VideoSong TeaserPump It Up Main Page

Andamiro participated in PLAYX4 2025, one of Korea’s largest game exhibitions, held at KINTEX (Korea International Exhibition Center) from May 22 to 25, drawing strong attention with its innovative arcade offerings and community-driven rhythm game events.

Unlike past exhibitions, visitors could actually receive physical tickets from the machines, exchange them through ticket eaters, and redeem prizes at a prize booth—just like in real arcade venues. The realistic setup impressed many guests, including government officials from the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, Game Rating and Administration Committee, and Korea Creative Content Agency, who visited the booth on the opening day. In partnership with Bandai Namco Korea, Andamiro also co-hosted a Taiko no Tatsujin experience event, drawing rhythm game fans of all ages. The highlight of the weekend was the Pump It Up DOMINION tournament, held on May 25 at the PLAYX4 main stage. The three-hour main event featured top-tier players from across the country competing live in front of a passionate audience. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iUwgoOH73PY Additionally, visitors had the chance to try out the Pump It Up: Phoenix arcade version and preview the upcoming Pump It Up: RISE PC version, which is set to launch in Early Access on Steam this June. PLAYX4 2025 was a great opportunity for Andamiro to connect with Korean arcade fans and showcase the immersive power of physical gaming experiences.
