New Video Game Movies and TV Shows: 2025 Releases and Beyond

We're witnessing a golden era for video game adaptations, with hits like The Super Mario Bros. Movie, Sonic the Hedgehog films, and acclaimed TV series such as The Last of Us and Fallout. The excitement doesn't stop there, as we eagerly await potential adaptations like God of War and Ghost of Tsushima. What's more, these modern adaptations are far surpassing the quality of their predecessors, offering fans a fresh and exciting take on beloved games.

While many projects are in the pipeline, it's uncertain how many will successfully navigate development and reach audiences. However, we're keeping a close eye on these developments and tracking their progress.

For clarity, we define a "video game movie" or "TV show" as an adaptation of an existing game, not merely a film about video games. Thus, movies like Wreck-It Ralph don't make the cut. These adaptations don't necessarily need to be faithful to their source material, but they must be rooted in actual games.
