Can you believe it? MobyGames has now been documenting and preserving video game history for a quarter century! Since March 1st, 1999.

(the interactive version of this graph, along with the numbers month-by-month for our entire history, available here for MobyPro)

Happy Anniversary and thanks to all of our amazing contributors, veteran and new alike.

To help celebrate this occasion, we made some t-shirts and a mug featuring our 25th Anniversary badge (with thanks to John Kauderer at Atari!).

You can order yours on the Atari store. Use coupon code MobyGames for 10% off.

Since the release of the new site a year ago, we've deployed hundreds of updates, including all new features, more information, improved tools and UI/UX, bug fixes, optimizations and more. You can journey through the changelogs here, but here are some highlights:

  • MobyPro (Early Access)
  • Game Relations
  • Indexes for Platforms, People and Critics
  • Missing Games
  • Most Researched Games, People, Companies and Groups
  • Additional scrapers for the Add Game form
  • Prices, including MSRP
