LIMASSOL, Cyprus, July 3, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Outfit7 today unveils a bold roadmap for 2025, featuring three new mobile game releases and a major evolution of the Talking Tom & Friends brand. This ambitious rollout includes the return of two fan-favorite titles and the company's first mobile game specifically designed for kids, marking a strategic expansion for Outfit7.
''While the entire industry is talking about challenges, obstacles, and how hard things are, we're going our own way, the Outfit7 way!'' said Jernej Česen, COO at Outfit7. "Our fans will enjoy three exciting new releases, impactful brand collaborations, and major updates. All of this is part of a bold brand evolution designed to reach and resonate with everyone. This is what it means to go all in."
Outfit7's 2025 roadmap is designed to excite longtime fans and win over a new generation of players. The three new releases are:
My Talking Tom Friends 2: Launching on July 15, this sequel to one of the company's top-performing virtual pet games will be the first to showcase the evolution of the Talking Tom & Friends brand, featuring refreshed character designs and new content. The game has already generated significant excitement, with over 2 million pre-registrations ahead of launch.

Talking Tom: The original Talking Tom virtual pet game is being fully reimagined! Coming later this year, it promises a nostalgic return to a beloved classic, with enhanced features and an all-new look for Tom.
A Strategic Move Into the Kids Market
Talking Tom & Friends: World represents a major milestone as Outfit7's first game designed specifically for kids, and the first in-app-purchase-driven title in the Talking Tom & Friends franchise. Built with creativity, storytelling, and self-expression in mind, the game features avatar creation and world exploration, all in an ad-free environment.
"We wanted to dedicate a segment of the Talking Tom & Friends universe to kids," explains Česen. "We believe users deserve fresh, high-quality experiences that span generations—and we want to be there from the very beginning, offering safe, fun, meaningful gameplay."
Talking Tom & Friends: A Brand Evolution
2025 also marks a transformative evolution for the Talking Tom & Friends brand. This isn't just a visual refresh, it's a comprehensive transformation. Fans will notice new character designs, updated visuals, refined voices, deeper storytelling, and a cohesive brand identity across all titles.

Fiction: ‘Endling' by Maria Reva

In May 1940, as Germany invaded Belgium and the Netherlands, Virginia Woolf was in her country house in southern England working on a biography of the art critic Roger Fry and the novel 'Between the Acts,' a shimmering fantasia about a small-town theater performance. Air skirmishes over Britain were already commonplace and a full-fledged German attack was imminent; Woolf's husband, Leonard, had planned out their suicide in case the country was conquered. Yet Virginia remained wholly consumed by her writing. 'No, I can't get the odd incongruity of feeling intensely and at the same time knowing that there's no importance in that feeling,' she observed in her diary. 'Or is there, as I sometimes think, more importance than ever?' What should writers do when catastrophic world events intrude on the composition of their work? The question lies at the heart of Maria Reva's 'Endling,' a novel of Ukraine before and during the 2022 Russian invasion. Here the outbreak of war does not simply alter the story; it cracks open the structure of the book. 'Endling' begins as a blackly comic satire of Ukrainian romance tourism, an apparently thriving national industry targeted to Western men seeking beautiful, impoverished brides. Yeva is an underfunded scientist who earns research money by moonlighting at a dating agency for these foreign bachelors. At a banquet-hall mingle she meets Nastia and Sol, a sister duo—Nastia is the 'bride,' Sol is her translator and chaperone—left penniless after the disappearance of their mother, an activist who became notorious for appearing topless at political events. But apocalyptic loomings are putting a damper on any love connections. Yeva is a specialist in endangered snails, which she collects in a mobile lab in her van. After a series of accidents leaves her with a lot of dead rare gastropods, she is so depressed that she is willing to go along with a high-profile stunt proposed by the sisters: They want to use Yeva's van to kidnap a group of bachelors, a revenge scheme inspired by their mother that will expose the dirty secrets of the marriage industry.

Matthew M. Williams Is Back with a 'Clothing Project'—Here's Why You Should Care

It's rare for a designer of a certain level of notability to hang out at a sales showroom. They'll give private appointments to the press, sure, but the sales portion of the proceedings? That's for the sales teams. But not Matthew M. Williams. The former designer of Givenchy and Alyx, and collaborator of Lady Gaga's Haus of Gaga was posted up at a showroom in the 10th arrondissement in Paris last week. Williams had been quiet on the fashion front since dropping a new version of Alyx last year. Then on June 1, he announced on Instagram that he'd be launching a namesake collection. There was no big PR agency involved this time around, no polite back and forth emails between editors and publicists and assistants to set up an appointment to go over the new line. It was just Williams, reachable via What's App with the time and predisposition to show what he'd been cooking up. The last time Vogue checked in with Williams was a year ago in his apartment in Paris. He was showing the new Alyx, revamped following an investment deal from Hong Kong-based luxury tycoon Adrian Cheng. Williams spoke of simmering down the label to its essential pieces, of making it more accessible to the people 'who care'—meaning those true fashion and Williams fanatics who have supported his work out of the gate. He spoke of working with only the best suppliers he'd encountered through his time at Givenchy and the old Alyx, and of making the pieces he wants to wear: great Japanese denim, a really good t-shirt. This time around, the conversation revolved around the same key themes with one key difference: Williams is running the show in its entirety. MWM is entirely self-funded by Williams. The lookbook images here feature him and his partner, the curator Giorgia von Albertini, and were photographed at the designer's new home in Paris. Williams does not refer to MWM as a brand or label, rather a 'clothing project.' Not in a pretentious way, though it may sound like that at first, but in the sense that Williams seems to be on the other side of the brand experiment. 'After doing it the other way,' he said, in reference to the grandness of his role at Givenchy or the breakneck speed of a project like Alyx, 'I want to do this in a way in which I can preserve my lifestyle.' He wants to be available when his kids call, he said, and have the time to work on creative projects as they come up. MWM is launching with no direct to consumer channel, just wholesale with retail partners that 'we know will value the product and the idea behind it.' He'll make two collections a year; the goal is for it to be manageable and scalable. Courtesy of Matthew M. Williams Courtesy of Matthew M. Williams The best thing in this first drop is Williams's new sneaker style. It's slim and can easily read like a dressier shoe when paired with slacks. Also great: a pair of hefty—but very light—black boots and all the denim. 'I want to provide value,' Williams said.

Lewis Hamilton warns against rushing into making sequel to F1 The Movie

SILVERSTONE, UK — Lewis Hamilton has warned against rushing into making a sequel for the Formula One movie despite its box office success, saying it should be allowed to 'simmer for a while'. Seven-time F1 world champion Hamilton served as a producer on F1 The Movie, which starred Brad Pitt and was released last week worldwide. Advertisement Hamilton worked with producer Jerry Bruckheimer and director Joe Kosinski, the team behind Top Gun: Maverick, to try and make the F1 film the most authentic racing movie ever made. It has proved to be a commercial success, ranking as the No 1 movie worldwide and reportedly drawing in more than $140million in box office sales. Earlier this week, Variety reported that a potential sequel was being mooted, having ranked as the most successful film made by Apple to date. Asked by The Athletic if he'd spoken to Bruckheimer or Kosinski if there had been talks about a potential F1 sequel, Hamilton replied: 'Well if I had, I wouldn't be telling you right now, firstly! 'No, I saw someone talk about it, but it's like, we literally just finished it. So I think the last thing we want right now is a sequel. 'It's been four years in the making, it was a lot of work, particularly for like Joe. It's time away from your family, time away from your kids. And also, it needs to just simmer for a while. Let's enjoy it. 'I think the worst thing we probably could do is rush into doing a sequel. Most sequels are way worse. So we don't need to rush it.' The F1 movie took more than two years to film, and led to Pitt and co-star Damson Idris training to be real-life racing drivers, while the F1 paddock opened its doors to allow filming to take place on-site at grand prix weekends. It meant the real-life F1 grid heavily featured in the film, and there were a number of cameos for team principals including Mercedes' Toto Wolff, Ferrari chief Fred Vasseur and Zak Brown, the CEO of McLaren Racing. Hamilton was heavily involved in the writing of the script and the editing process to help ensure the film was as authentic as possible. The Ferrari driver said that if a sequel were to happen, they should 'really, really take our time in getting it even better,' and they should conduct an F1-style debrief. Advertisement 'I think right now, which I don't know if they've ever done before, but I've asked them to do a debrief,' Hamilton said. 'So like, let's review what we did, what we could have done better. I don't know if they ever do that in the movie business. 'But it's something I've obviously learned from here, so I'm going to try and apply that to future programs that I do.'
