Summer Games Fest 2025: not enough racing games, but some reveals turned our heads
When you post something on social media, you don't tell everyone about all the holidays, nice dinners and weddings you'll be attending for the next two years. The trailers you see in the cinema are generally for a handful of upcoming movies you might want to watch in the next month. Meanwhile, over in the games industry, in the last three days we've been shown every game in existence from now until the heat death of the universe.
But aside from that opening salvo, we're not here to question the wisdom of an annual event which blurts out more titles than anyone could possibly pay attention to or remember. No, instead we're going to sift out the good stuff.
If you missed our roundup of PlayStation's State of Play showcase, you can find that here.
Sadly it wasn't a big one for racing games. In fact we counted a grand total of one to add to our radar, but the other genres fared better, so these are the titles that caught our eye during Summer Games Fest 2025. That means there are approximately 3,000 games that won't be mentioned here, but it doesn't mean that they won't be good games or that we think you're wrong if you liked them.
It's just that this is the year 2025, and ruthless economy of attention is required in order to survive and go about our lives.
