The highly anticipated Future Games Show Spring Showcase is set to return on Thursday, March 20, 2025. This digital event will air during the Game Developers Conference (GDC) in San Francisco and will be followed by a new ‘FGS Live from GDC’ broadcast on the same day. Both shows will be available for viewing on popular platforms such as Twitch, YouTube, X, Facebook, TikTok, GamesRadar, BiliBili, and more.
The Spring Showcase promises to deliver an exciting lineup of world premieres, exclusive game demos, and new trailers from both AAA and indie studios. With an average of over 10 million live and opening weekend views per show, the Future Games Show has featured more than 500 games, including big-budget franchises like Sid Meier’s Civilization VII and Black Myth: Wukong, as well as acclaimed indie titles such as the gun-fu action adventure SPINE and the world premiere of 333 Studios’ cinematic horror adventure Retrieval.
The new ‘FGS Live from GDC’ show will air immediately after the main showcase, offering even more trailers, news from GDC, and interviews from the show floor. The Spring Showcase in March is just the beginning, as the Future Games Show has two more events planned for 2025: the Summer Showcase in June and the Future Games Show at gamescom in August.
Daniel Dawkins, Content Director of Games Video & Events at Future, shared his excitement for the upcoming year: “2025 is going to be a huge year for gaming. With the advent of the Nintendo Switch 2, a second season of HBO’s The Last of Us, and the looming juggernaut that is Grand Theft Auto 6, we are standing at the precipice of an immense 12 months for players. Yet with over 200 new games launching on Steam every week, it’s never been more challenging for new titles to achieve standout and command players’ precious free time. The Future Games Show’s mission is to help its viewers discover the best new games, with a special focus on the off-radar AAs, sleeper hits, and innovative indies. To that end, we’re pleased to announce that the Future Games Show will return for three more outings in 2025, starting with our Spring Showcase on March 20.
“Last year saw the Future Games Show spotlight a procession of conversation-starting titles like Atomfall, Indika, and Screenbound, and we’re excited to partner with GDC to give you a glimpse of what’s coming next. We hope you’ll join us to kick the year off in style and feast your eyes on some of the best and brightest experiences coming to PC and consoles later this year.”
