We run through some of the most important video game 10th anniversaries in 2025. Notable titles like Bloodborne and Batman: Arkham Knight will be ten years old.
The arrival of 2025 has affected many of our most beloved video games in strange ways.

Here we take a look at some of the video games that will turn ten years old in 2025:

These dates are significant not only because of the anniversary itself, but also because in the case of titles that have not received a sequel or new release since then, they can mean news and updates with possible new projects in their respective franchises. That is to say, during these anniversaries there may be either news of a new game or a surprise new release.
This list also serves as a very accurate snapshot of that time period. In 2015, the eighth-generation consoles (PS4, Xbox One, and Wii U) had only been on the market for a few years. Many high-profile releases, such as Call of Duty: Black Ops III or Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain, were cross-generational in that they also appeared on PS3 and Xbox 360, demonstrating that major developers and distributors were still thinking about these machines and their respective large console fleets when releasing their most anticipated titles.
At the same time, the Wii U was going through a complicated moment. Although it was one of Nintendo’s biggest sales failures, in 2015 it received fan-favorite titles like Xenoblade Chronicles X, Yoshi’s Woolly World, Splatoon, or Super Mario Maker, which meant that this machine continued to have great exclusives and quality games. In short, this list is not only a nostalgic list, but also serves to better understand where “we were” ten years ago in the electronic entertainment landscape.
