2025: A Frame-A-Game Year In Review
Wow. What a year. 2025 has been one hell of a busy ride, and we’re massively grateful to everyone who trusted Frame-A-Game to showcase their video game collectibles and elevate their gaming frames. From games to films and everything in between, you’ve kept us busy, inspired, and motivated all year!
Here’s a look back at some of the highlights that made this year unforgettable.
Product Launches of 2025
Customers are at the heart of everything we do. As a gamer myself, my goal is always to help create displays that make your collection shine and give you a sense of pride every time you look at it.
In 2025, we've continued to expand our range of gaming frames and display options, introducing new products, reimagining old favourites, and making sure there's something for every type of collector. Whether you are showcasing the latest releases, classic titles or trading card treasures.
MagLevate - Elevate Your Gaming Collection
Our magnetic display system takes your steelbook collection from shelf to showcase in seconds. Designed to make your prized steelbooks levitate like magic, MagLevate uses powerful neodymium magnets to turn any game or movie into a gravity-defying centerpiece.
Refined, minimal, and powered by hidden magnets, it has quickly become a favourite among the community and our second best-selling product of 2025.
Disc Repair Service - Protect Your Cherished Media
Our professional disc repair service is available to UK customers and uses a high-quality cleaning machine to restore discs in just minutes. From light scratches to more noticeable marks, each disc is carefully treated to bring it back to playable condition. Helping you protect, preserve, and continue enjoying the games and films you love.
The "I Lost My Case" Range - For Discs Only
For when the case is gone but the story remains. The “I Lost My Case” range combines sleek aluminium craftsmanship with personal customisation, giving your disc the display it deserves. Choose from six aluminium frame colours, five plaque finishes, and a swappable front mount to perfectly complement your disc's artwork. Finished with a polished face, brushed aluminium edges, and UV100 Plexiglas, each frame delivers a premium, timeless presentation.

TCG Cards Are Back - And They've Evolved
This year, our TCG frames returned better than ever, giving Pokémon cards the display treatment they truly deserve. Whether it’s your first graded 10, a childhood grail, or a pull that took you straight back to being a kid, these cards deserve more than a drawer or a binder.
Our PSA-Graded → and ACE-Graded → frames feature our custom SlabDock, a precisely engineered 3D-printed mount that holds slabs securely without stress or wobble, while Raw Cards → are supported by our purpose-built CardDock for One-Touch protection. Thoughtfully sized and designed for balance, each frame delivers a clean, gallery-style presentation that lets your cards shine proudly alongside your video game displays.
Expo Pro Range - Borrowed Depths From Our Exhibition Frames
If you’ve ever loved the look of our Expo frames (now discontinued) but wished they could do a bit more, the Expo Pro Range was made for you. Sitting perfectly between classic Expo and our premium Exhibition line, Expo Pro brings added depth without losing the clean, gallery-style look collectors love.
That extra depth allows us to safely frame thicker and more varied media, from PS1, Dreamcast, and Mega Drive games to bulkier cases and collectibles. Crafted from real Italian wood with the same premium look and feel as our Exhibition frames, Expo Pro lets you mix and match displays while keeping your walls cohesive and beautifully balanced.
Inspired By Backgrounds - Immersion Without Imitation
Born from feedback within the gaming community, our Inspired By Backgrounds range was created to add depth and atmosphere to your display, with artwork that feels like it belongs in your favourite games. It gives collectors a more immersive and personal way to showcase their games and memorabilia, without copying assets, infringing on IP, or relying on AI-generated content.
By striking the perfect balance between authentic atmosphere, respect for the artform, and thoughtful composition, each background captures the mood and essence of the worlds you love while remaining entirely original. Inspired By Backgrounds enhance your frames without overpowering what matters most: the game itself.

It’s been busy, exciting, and genuinely humbling. From video games to films and everything in between, you’ve kept us flat out and helped cement Frame-A-Game as a leader in gaming frames and collectible displays.
Working With More Developers
Of course, these products don’t appear out of nowhere, we love collaborating with the teams behind the games themselves. Supporting developers, from small independent studios to larger organisations, continues to be a huge part of what Frame-A-Game is about, and 2025 was no exception.
This year, I’ve been fortunate enough to collaborate with even more developers, helping turn their hard work into official gaming frames and display pieces that can be proudly showcased at home. It’s always a genuine pleasure to work alongside such talented people and see their creations celebrated beyond the screen.
Fun, Giveaways, and Community
And it’s not just about products, the community brought so much energy to 2025. From special promotions to giveaways, connecting with the Frame-A-Game community has been one of the highlights of the year. Seeing your setups, photos, and creativity shared across social media never gets old, and it continues to inspire new ideas and designs for video game displays.
Whether you’ve entered a giveaway, shared a photo, or simply supported the journey, thank you for being part of the community that makes Frame-A-Game what it is.
A Personal Note: Burnout, Challenges and Looking After Yourself
2025 wasn’t without its challenges. For those who don’t know, Frame-A-Game isn’t my full-time role, I also work a 9–5, and majority of my spare time goes into the store. At the start of the year, I experienced burnout and made the difficult decision to temporarily close the store to take time out and reset. Then, towards the end of the year, I faced the possibility of redundancy from my full-time job, which made things uncertain in ways many will recognise. Thankfully, it all worked out, but if you’ve been through something similar, you’re not alone.
Even with all the successes, 2025 was a reminder that growth comes with challenges. I’ve learned how important it is to set boundaries, care for yourself, and find a balance that lets me keep delivering the best products and customer experience without burning out. The key takeaway? Pause when you need to, look after yourself, and don’t feel guilty for taking a break.
Looking Ahead to 2026
We can’t wait to see what 2026 has in store! Expect more products, exciting collaborations, and even more ways to frame a game and showcase your collection in style. Thank you for supporting us, sharing your setups, and being part of the Frame-A-Game community, you make everything we do possible.
Here’s to another amazing year of celebrating, displaying, and framing your favourite pieces! 🫡
