Just a quick update re-confirming some earlier rumors that I wrote about for everyone, since word is that people are saying they aren’t true.
A remake of Stern Pinball’s The Walking Dead IS happening this fall. I’m accepting bets on it for anyone who is interested.
Also, Stern is planning on making use of those Aerosmith parts that I saw on my factory tour to make another run sometime in 2025.
Last up for tonight, Pinball Brothers really wanted to get the license for Motörhead pinball last year. Apparently, it’s a big band in parts of Europe. They couldn’t get it though, because as I said Spooky Pinball already has the license and is doing a run of the game that was showed off at TPF. As Spooky said, they are not building Motörhead “in 2025” because it got pushed back in its schedule until 2026.
Time for the disclaimer. As I always say, rumor articles are meant to be fun and generate excitement about the hobby. They’ve existed for decades, all the way back to PinGame Journal and other publications. When I write about a rumor, I try to make express my level of confidence in them but this sort of thing isn’t an exact science. If it was 100% straight from the manufacturer, it wouldn’t be a rumor…it would just be news. I feel very good about all three of the above rumors, but we won’t know for sure until they happen.
I’m really excited about what’s coming up in pinball in 2025. It’s going to be a great year for the hobby.
