Reaction: Summer Game Fest had lots of interesting games, but little excitement

Summer Game Fest 2025’s live show portion has officially come to a close, and the VGC team has shared their verdicts, live from Los Angeles.

VGC’s Andy Robinson, Chris Scullion, and Jordan Middler are joined by The Game Business’s Christopher Dring in a special reaction podcast, which can be viewed now on our YouTube channel.

This year’s Summer Game Fest featured its usual roster of announcements and game updates, the biggest of which was arguably Capcom’s Resident Evil Requiem, which closed out the show.

Ryu Ga Gotoku Studio revealed a new look at its game previously known as Project Century, a Wu-Tang game was announced, IOI Interactive announced multiple game crossovers, and 15 years later, the Scott Pilgrim game is getting a sequel, featuring a brand-new story from the original creator.
