It’s time to game. Kicking off June 6, with Summer Game Fest Live, SGF 2025 runs through to June 9, with the likes of Xbox Games Showcase and even Death Stranding 2 live game premiere likely to make headlines. There is a bunch of others in store, including Day of the Devs. Devolver Direct and Wholesome Direct are peppering the schedule.
For Xbox, games in the pipeline include the new Fable, Perfect Dark, Gears of War: E-Day, Everwild, State of Decay 3, Clockwork Revolution, Hideo Kojima’s OD and Contraband.
What about Nintendo (although it’s a bit busy) and Sony? Traditionally, both have their own presentations, but there is no word yet on either. Ubisoft usually does a thing too, but nothing’s on the docket.
The most recent headline-makers include a glimpse at The Witcher 4, courtesy of Unreal, and a closer look at IO Interactive’s 007 First Light, a James Bond game from the studio responsible for the incredible Hitman series. Hopefully, there are further surprises. Maybe a Silksong release date? Gosh, I can be silly.

How SGF gave games media a better kind of trade event
Summer Games Fest kicks off at the end of the week. We’re sending a small team of editors to watch, play and interview their way through all the biggest reveals and experiences. While it doesn’t yet have the iconic weight of E3 — which is all but dead — SGF is a crucial lightning rod for most of the gaming industry. Jessica Conditt lays out why she prefers the new form of the gaming trade show — and how she might have cursed the whole thing with her witchy powers.
28 Years Later used 20 iPhones at the same time
The film used three iPhone rigs.
Director Danny Boyle has discussed the use of iPhones for 28 Years Later in an interview with IGN. The movies used three special rigs for the iPhone sequences: one for eight cameras, which one person can carry, another with ten and another with 20.
“I never say this, but there is an incredible shot in the second half [of the film] where we use the 20-rig camera, and you’ll know it when you see it,” Boyle told IGN. He described the 20-iPhone rig as “basically a poor man’s bullet time.”
Stranger Things 5 finally has a release date
Spread across three volumes.
While I thought they’d keep the Stranger Things train rolling until Bobby Milly Brown morphed into Winona Ryder, this is the end. Netflix has finally revealed the release date for the show’s fifth and final season: November 26. Volume one has four episodes, followed a month later by three episodes for volume two on Christmas Day (December 25) and the final episode on New Year’s Eve (December 31).
