Two legends finally unite - The Settlers II conquers the Amiga
Düsseldorf, August 12, 2025

After almost 30 years, The Settlers II will finally be available on the Amiga starting October 18, 2025! Officially licensed by Ubisoft Entertainment, the Gold Edition of this legendary city-building strategy game has been faithfully and insightfully ported by Look Behind You, proving that true classics are timeless.

== THE AMIQUTE TOTALLY UNSENSIBLE CHALLENGE 2025 (TAQTUC) ==

So here is the proposal : We will host a challenge consisting in a run to port and create the most Qt6 software for AmigaOS4. It will take place over the next few months, and there will be points given and prizes taken. The points will be given by a panel of judges, and the prizes will be financed by the donations made through the AmiQute Ko-fi page. The more software we make, the more popular we are, the more donations will come, the more prizes will be available, the more motivation for creating more software etc. etc

As with the last two events, there will be a special issue of Amiga Future for the Amiga 40 in Mönchengladbach.

The special issue is free for all visitors to Amiga 40 Mönchengladbach and is funded entirely by advertising (thanks to all supporters!) and APC&TCP.

Boing Attitude never does things halfway, and this time, it’s going even bigger! You’ll get a 104-page issue, instead of the usual 52... And BOING is not only in French, but also in English! Oh my gosh! No, you’re not dreaming: you’ll have 104 pages all about the Amiga in every possible form to read. Why? Because a tenth anniversary is something to celebrate, but also, and especially, because in 2025, the Amiga turns forty!

I released a new project of mine to help people set up AmigaOS 4 on any machine running Qemu 10 and above. Kyvos is a new frontend for Qemu that runs on Linux, macOS and Windows. It is completely free and it helps to start with just a few clicks. It comes with a 70+ page manual that describes all the steps to have an AmigaOS 4 system up and running.

Since today you can read the Amiga Future issue 149 online on our webpage.

In irregular intervals we provide older issues of the Amiga Future for free online.

Hi all there ;)

After a long waiting period, we'll get a fresh new stock of Classic 520 accelerator boards for your Amiga 500 / Amiga 1000 😉

The English and German issue 175 (July/August 2025) of our print magazine Amiga Future has been distributed today, and can also be ordered directly from our editorial office at Amiga Future, and from other Amiga dealers that stock it.

As mentioned, the AMIGA/040th is a donation-driven event. We have received some donations thus far, and we appreciate everyone who has helped bring this event to life.

We are offering donors unique, numbered posters from the 1986 Amiga Developer Conference. Why unique and numbered? Dale Luck has collaborated with original Amiga colleagues to sign these original 1986 Amiga Developer Conference posters commemorating the 40th anniversary of Amiga. These posters feature a screenshot from the famous RoboCity Amiga demo, accompanied by the words “The Dream Comes to Life.” Each poster is signed and numbered, making no two identical.

The following articles have been added to the website of the Amiga magazine Obligement (http://obligement.free.fr) during the last two months:
