Pinball Magazine & Pinball News PINcast March 2026 recap

March is often the time for new game announcements, and this year certainly didn't disappoint with of two new reveals, one updated classic and one upcoming reimagined game, all discussed by Jonathan and Martin in the March 2026 Pinball Industry News PINcast.

Turner Pinball made a surprise reveal of their third title, Yukon Yeti, just ahead of the Texas Pinball Festival and brought two machines along for visitors to play. This follow-up by Dennis Nordman to his classic Whitewater game has striking similarities, but adds more shots, deeper rules and a novel ball climber lock mechanism.

Although their machines didn't clear US customs in time to appear at the Texas show, Hexa Pinball launched their second title, The 3 Musketeers, with a reveal at an art gallery in France. Although no gameplay videos have been released yet, the game will be available to play at selected upcoming shows in the US.

The newly relaunched American Pinball are hard at work producing a run of 100 re-artworked Houdini machines commemorating the 100 years since the master illusionist's death, while also developing their first in a series of Williams/Bally reimagined titles, which was announced to be Cirqus Voltaire. Find out what more they had to reveal and how the free prize draw for one of the Houdini machines ended up with two being given away.

After last month launch, Stern Pinball's new Pokémon game made its way to Texas for its first show appearance in Pro and Premium forms, while the design team made a presentation about how the new title was created.

While Jonathan and Martin were in Texas, they took time out to visit the factories of Barrels of Fun and Multimorphic and talk to David van Es and Gerry Stellenberg. Gerry is also the guest in the latest edition of What's Cooking? With... where he shares his favourite dish and also talks more about the pinball business and the latest developments at Multimorphic.
