"2025 Video Game Movies and TV Shows: Release Dates Revealed"

We're currently witnessing a golden era for video game adaptations, with blockbuster films like The Super Mario Bros. Movie and Sonic the Hedgehog, alongside acclaimed TV series such as The Last of Us and Fallout. The excitement doesn't stop there—anticipation is building for upcoming adaptations of iconic games like God of War, Ghost of Tsushima, and many others. What's thrilling is that these modern takes on video game stories are significantly outshining their predecessors in terms of quality and reception.

While it's uncertain how many of these projects will successfully navigate the development process and reach audiences, we're closely monitoring their progress. Only a select few have confirmed release dates so far, but we're eager to see which ones will come to fruition.

For clarity, we define "video game movie" or "TV show" as a direct adaptation of an existing video game. These adaptations don't necessarily have to be faithful to the source material, but they must be inspired by a real game. Wreck-It Ralph, for instance, which focuses on video game culture rather than adapting a specific game, doesn't fit our criteria.
