PAX Australia 2025: The Line-Up

With PAX Australia 2025 quickly approaching, we are starting to get an idea of what games, tech and more are going to be at the show. This year, we are doing a giant list that we will update when new additions are revealed, so you won’t have to keep searching.
The list will be divided up into four distinct groups:
Gaming
Tech
Tabletop
Shopping
Now that last one might double up over the other areas, but there are going to be standalone booths selling a host of things. The lists will grow as the show gets closer, so be sure to check back often.
Gaming

The Sims are coming back to PAX Aus, after being present last year. While their 2024 showing was via a photobooth, there is no word on what the 2025 offering will be.
With The Sims being a part of the Game Worlds exhibit at ACMI, this could be a big year for the series.
