Psikyo (Japanese: Saikyō / 彩京) was a Japanese game developer and publisher that developed a number of shooting games between 1992 and 2003. It was formed by ex-Video System staff who had previously worked on Rabio Lepus[1], Turbo Force[2] and the first game of the Aero Fighters series.[3][4] In 2002 they were acquired by X-Nauts and stopped developing games in-house. X-Nauts.Psikyo shut down in 2005 and ZeroDiv, an SES company formed the same year by former Psikyo developer Takayuki Haragami[5], acquired the rights to their properties. ZeroDiv primarily licensed the rights to mobile developers[6][7] until they were acquired by City Connection in 2019.[5]
Psikyo games are noted for their fast enemy bullet patterns, highly challenging second loops, and random elements.
