2025 in Review: A Recap of Every Drop at Eighty Sixed

January 1, 2026| Written by Jack Doumanian

As 2025 comes to a close, I'd like to take a moment to look back at a year packed with new collection launches and product drops at Eighty Sixed. Throughout the year, we released a wide range of officially licensed video game apparel and accessories, each designed to celebrate the games and worlds that we love.

Whether you followed every release or are discovering Eighty Sixed for the first time, this should serve as a complete reference to everything we dropped in 2025... all in one place.

The Curtain Call - Skullgirls Pin Sets
Release Date: January 10, 2025


It was a long journey - much longer than it probably should have been. In hindsight, we should have released these Skullgirls pin sets much closer to each other. Instead, over the course of several years, we dropped them sporadically. Regardless, we wanted to hit the refresh button by launching all 3 of the remaining sets at the start of the year. 

Terraria Cultist Beanie & Biome Socks
Release Date: February 7, 2025

These were initially scheduled to be launched in November of 2024, but we had some hiccups with manufacturing that caused some delays. Despite launching them much later than intended, they still seemed to resonate well with fans. 

Skullgirls Sigil Socks
Release Date: February 18, 2025



Fun fact: Our initial shipment for the Skullgirls Sigil socks was lost in transit. We had to have these completely remade which caused an additional 45 day delay to get them on hand. 

Shin Megami Tensei III - Demi-fiend Snapback
Release Date: February 21, 2025



Demi-Fiend shirt: check. Demi-Fiend keychain: check. You know we had to drop the snapback to match. 

Persona 5 - Phantom Thieves Red & Snapback
Release Date: March 14, 2025


The Phantom Thieves (Red) t-shirt was the first time we launched a limited run alt color-way of one our designs. Only a few hundred of these have ever been printed. It was the perfect product to go along with one of the most gorgeous hats we've made. The Persona 5 Phantom Thieves snapback has so much attention to detail, you really need to see it up close to truly appreciate it. 

Assassin's Creed Shadows Collection
Release Date: March 21, 2025

This was a big one for us, and for me personally. By far the largest drop we've ever done, our officially licensed Assassin's Creed Shadows Collection was project that was in development for over a year. I've personally been a fan of this franchise since the first game dropped in 2007, so having the opportunity to develop merchandise for their latest game was a huge milestone. And we're just getting started. 

Guilty Gear - Anji T-Shirt
Release Date: April 4, 2025



I don't think too many people expected us to drop an Anji shirt, but his design is so good we really felt like we had to make it happen. Fun Fact: I don't think Brendan wanted us to share this photo. 

Skullgirls - Filia & Squigly Posters
Release Date: April 10, 2025



I think these would have been really nice if they were part of a larger set featuring each character from the game. It would have definitely taken some time to develop, but I think it would have been worth it. Who knows, maybe someday in the future we'll have an opportunity to make them. 

Persona 5 - Fox Pin Set
Release Date: April 25, 2025



Only a handful of Persona 5 Pin Sets left to launch. This has definitely been a journey. Perhaps the next trip we launch them all at once. 

Sea of Thieves Collection
Release Date: May 30, 2025


2025 was a year of new collections. Sea of Thieves was our second big drop to get excited about. I remember first seeing the Sea of Thieves gameplay footage during E3 in 2016 and tweeting how fun it looked. (I even OMGed). 9 Years later and we launch a collection for the game. Some of these pieces are probably my favorite products we've ever done. The glow in the dark, spinning Voyage Keychain in particular. 

Sea of Thieves - Reaper's Mark Snapback
Release Date: June 13, 2025



Another addition to our Snapback Collection, and this followed our Sea of Thieves launch. Initially this hat was meant to launch with the rest of the of the collection but we had some unexpected delays. Needless to say, the hat came out great, and the photos are some of my favorite. 

Street Fighter 6 Collection
Release Date: June 26, 2025



As we typically do each year, in preparation for EVO, we launch a handful of new fighting game t-shirts. This year was no exception. We introduced 8 new Street Fighter tees at EVO, and then slowly rolled them out on our website afterwards. The first drop online featured shirts for A.K.I, Luke, Akuma and a special edition limited run of our popular Chun Li design in black and gold. 

Guilty Gear - Chipp T-Shirt
Release Date: July 3, 2025



One or two people on our team considers Chipp their favorite character in the game. With that in mind, it certainly was a no brainer to add him to our collection!

Persona 4 - Chie T-Shirt
Release Date: July 11, 2025



An insanely good piece of artwork on a bold and vibrant, high quality shirt. That's what we always strive to create - and our Persona 4 Chie shirt, without a doubt, hit the nail on the head! 

Guilty Gear - Testament Shirt
Release Date: July 25, 2025



Originally launched at EVO, Testament was one of the most requested Guilty Gear character designs from our customers. We hope we did them justice. 

Terraria - Ocean Biome T-Shirt, Tank Top & Beach Day Poster
Release Date: August 8, 2025



Initially the Terraria Biome shirt was only supposed to be available as a tank-top. However, at the last minute, we decided to offer it as both a tee and a tank. If you had pre-ordered this design, you would've gotten our Terraria Beach Day Poster for free! 

Street Fighter Kimberly and Zangief T-Shirts
Release Date: August 15, 2025



As promised, we began rolling out the rest of the Street Fighter 6 Collection. Up next was Kimberly and Zangief. 

Guilty Gear - Dizzy T-Shirt
Release Date: August 22, 2025



It had been a long time since we had done a t-shirt for Guilty Gear's Dizzy. We wanted to make sure it was up to par with some of our previous designs. This one in particular resonated very well with our team. Fun Fact: This design was supposed to come with a free giveaway item. Unfortunately, we didn't get that item completed in time - so instead, we've decided to turn it into a collection of items that we'll be releasing later in 2026. 

Monster Hunter Wilds - Rathalos
Release Date: August 28, 2025



The Monster Hunter Wilds Rathalos t-shirt design was initially made for Monster Hunter Worlds when we initially launched the collection many years back. We had another Rathalos themed product and we didn't want the two to compete - so we held off to launch it later. Who knew later would come a few games later? 

Street Fighter - Marisa & Manon
Release Date: September 5, 2025


We've always wanted to give representation to fighting game characters that usually don't get any merchandising love. Marisa and Manon were no exception. The Street Fighter Manon t-shirt and Marisa t-shirt were initially available at EVO in limited quantities - but as always, we ultimately drop them on our website as well!

Shin Megami Tensei III - Gozu-Tennoh
Release Date: September 12, 2025



The Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne Gozu-Tennoh t-shirt (what a mouthful!) really stands out. This artwork is absolutely gorgeous and the colors truly pop. The photos simply don't do it enough justice. 

Skullgirls - Fortune & Minette T-Shirt
Release Date: September 19, 2025



The Skullgirls Fortune & Minette shirt was designed quite some time ago. We initially planned for it to be made on a long-sleeve t-shirt. We had some good ideas for sleeve prints that would match the design as well. Unfortunately, we were having some difficulties finding a good color-way for the print, so we put the design on the shelf. Eventually we revisited this design and brought it back as a limited edition short sleeve tee. 

Persona 5 - Shujin Academy Beanie
Release Date: September 26, 2025



I've always loved subtle designs that look like they belong in the game. Our Persona 5 Shujin Academy beanie looks like it belongs in the game. 

Assassin's Creed Shadows Longsleeve
Release Date: October 3, 2025



One of my favorite Assassin's Creed products we've done so far. This one is hanging in my closet and consistently gets compliments every time I wear it. 

Guilty Gear May & Bridget Socks
Release Date: October 14, 2025



Guilty Gear socks featuring Bridget and May? Absolutely! If you've purchased socks from us before, it should be noted that these two (and every pair we release moving forward) have been upgraded to use better materials and just feel much nicer. It took a few iterations but we finally got the socks exactly how we wanted them. 

Monster Hunter Wilds Arkveld T-Shirt
Release Date: October 21, 2025



Our second Monster Hunter Wilds tee. This one was photographed at the Red Rock Canyon here in Las Vegas, which has an environment similar to the one featured on the shirt. It was a perfect match. 

Borderlands Collection (Psycho Ripper)
Release Date: October 31, 2025



In October, we surprised everyone with the release of the first of many new Borderlands products! Our Borderlands 4 Psycho Ripper t-shirt is definitely a standout piece. Make sure you stay tuned as we have new Borderlands shirts, pins, keychains, hats and more in the works. 

Guilty Gear - Faust T-Shirt
Release Date: November 7, 2025



We really tried to get our Guilty Gear Faust t-shirt done in time for tournament season during the summer. Unfortunately there was a lot of back and forth - but the good news is that it resulted in a pretty gorgeous design that paid perfect homage to the character.

November 21 
Monster Hunter Wilds - Gore Magala T-Shirt



Our final Monster Hunter Wilds design for the year is an absolute eye catching, stunning design. 

December 5
Terraria - Moonlord Long Sleeve



The Terraria Moon Lord Long-sleeve t-shirt design had actually been sitting in our hard drives for well over a year. This was initially planned to be launched in the winter of 2024, but we missed our deadline. Fun fact: the delay caused us to add some new elements to the design and make it glow in the dark! 

December 12
Sea of Thieves - Megalodon Long Sleeve



Our final product for 2025. The Sea of Thieves Megalodon Long Sleeve t-shirt. At the time of writing this article, this one is still available for pre-order and will be available only in a limited run. 

That's it for 2025, folks! Now we look forward to 2026 which is gearing up to be a promising year full of new product drops, new product categories, and much much more! Stay tuned because we will be starting the year off strong and you won't want to miss a single drop. 

In the meantime, please feel free to drop a comment with what type of products you'd love to see made in 2026. As always, you can also talk with our team directly on our Discord

Thanks everyone!
