Press release -
Jingle Jam unveils first four games for this year’s Games Collection ahead of full launch
28 November 2025, Bristol, UK: Annual charity fundraising event Jingle Jam returns on Monday 1 December with a brand-new Games Collection aiming to raise millions for great causes around the globe.
Jingle Jam has today announced a preview of some of the games included in the 2025 Collection, with 15 titles available in total for those who donate £35 or more from 5 PM GMT on the first.
The Jingle Jam is made unique by its Games Collection, a bespoke, premium collection of games donated by developers and publishers annually. Registered Jingle Jam fundraisers can add the Games Collection to their Tiltify campaign pages, and all donors who give £35 or more to their campaigns will receive keys to the selection of games.
The full list of games will be announced on 1 December, but the 2025 Games Collection is confirmed to include:
- Tactical Breach Wizards, Suspicious Developments
- Core Keeper, Pugstorm / Fireshine Games
- Dungeons of Hinterberg, Microbird Games / Curve Games
- Train Sim World 6: Special Jingle Jam Edition, Dovetail Games
One of these headline publishers is also running a special fundraising event over Jingle Jam: Fireshine Games, in collaboration with 2025 Jingle Jam charity partner Make-A-Wish, will run a 24-hour global ‘Core Keeper Survive-A-Thon’ from 3 – 4 December. The relay will be launched by The Yogscast and will feature multiple international creators as the in-game world jumps from stream to stream around the world, where donors can raise funds to sabotage or aid the creators during their stream. The Asian segment of the relay will bring major creators such as Ayunda Risu and Kureiji Ollie into Jingle Jam for the very first time, courtesy of a partnership with Hololive ID.
This year’s collection also features content made exclusively for Jingle Jam. British developer Dovetail Games has crafted a special Jingle Jam Edition of their game Train Sim World 6, which sets players in the seat of the ultimate train simulation experience: mastering iconic trains across all manner of amazing global routes. Train Sim World 6: Jingle Jam Edition brings three additional iconic train simulation experiences to players. Speed across the French countryside in the LGV Méditerranée Add-On, manage American commuter trains in the MBTA: Boston-Framingham & Worcester Add-On, and save Christmas from a mischievous Holiday Elf in, unique to the Jingle Jam Edition, the Holiday Express: Holiday Elf narrative adventure!
The Collection will be available to the first 100,000 to donate £35 or more to Jingle Jam’s charity partners.
Taking place 1-14 December, this year’s event will raise funds for Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM), War Child, Autistica, Become, Make-A-Wish, The Trevor Project, Wallace & Gromit’s Grand Appeal and WWF.
Jingle Jam is a cornerstone annual charity event which brings together games, content creators and their communities for two weeks of entertainment. The event has raised over £27.5m since its conception in 2011.
“After the success of 2024’s Games Collection, we’ve repeated the same new structure for 2025,” said Rich Keith, chair of Jingle Jam Trustees. “Huge thanks to Dovetail Games, Fireshine Games and the other publishers for supporting the event - by donating their games for free, we are able to raise millions for a good cause.”
Hundreds of creators will be taking part in this year’s Jingle Jam, including ChrisMD, Mongraal, Zentraya, WillNE and ArthurTV, joining a host of returning stars such as Smosh Games, Talia Mar, FreyzPlayz, Jack Manifold, Jingle Jam stalwarts The Spiffing Brit, RTGame, and the event’s founders, The Yogscast.
