The SQEX Creators Exhibition will feature items modeled with illustrations from the following Square Enix titles: Final Fantasy IX, Final Fantasy XII, Star Ocean The Second Story R, Paranormasight, and the SaGa series.

Square Enix has also provided a map of the event area. Visitors will enter the venue from the southwestern gate. In a counter-clockwise direction, they will see the following booths in order before exiting the venue via the Theater Area:
- Star Ocean The Second Story R – Sensu folding fan with illustration by Yukihiro Kajimoto
- Paranormasight – Arimatsu-Narumi tie-dyed yukata with illustration by Gen Kobayashi
- SaGa – Black-crested clothes with illustration by Satoshi Kuramochi
- Final Fantasy XII – Tokoname pottery with illustration by Ryoma Ito
- Final Fantasy IX – Sobajima cans with illustration by Toshiyuki Itahana
On each weekend day and holiday, Square Enix will also set up a special corner where people can pay extra to take part in the production process behind one of the traditional crafts. There will be exactly five holidays during the event, as Japan will observe the National Foundation Day on Monday, February 12, 2024. Other than the highlighted crafts, the exhibition will also showcase concept art and character artworks from each game.
Square Enix will hold the SQEX Creators Exhibition at the Chukyo TV building in Nagoya, Japan, on February 9-18, 2024.
