I got a chance to play a 30-minute demo of Mixtape at Summer Game Fest 2025, and it immediately became one of my most anticipated games. The gameplay is constantly changing, keeping things fresh and preventing any one element from becoming tiresome – which is perfect for a game centered around creating the ideal playlist.
The creative director, Johnny Galvatron, originally said the game would be released within the next year (from June 2025), so the recent delay isn’t entirely unexpected, especially since it’s now mid-November.
If the demo is anything to go by, the developers are creating something truly special, and it’s worth the extra time they’re taking to polish it.
I hope we’ll learn the official release date for Mixtape soon. I’m really looking forward to playing it whenever it comes out.
