40 years. 40 issues. It's a special occasion here at Amiga Addict, so we decided that rather than just making a cake, we'd do what we do best - bake a special magazine instead! It's 25 years since the UK's most illustrious computing magazine, Amiga Format, left our shelves. But with the help of Future Publishing, we've been able to bring the name back for a special tribute issue.

This isn't just a cover change either, the magazine has been restructured and restyled, and even more than that - we've welcomed back some of AF's most famed alumni to help us write the magazine itself. From interviews with the crew to full articles written by Bath's finest, we hope this is a real throwback for all of us to when Amiga print media was at its height.

In big old Issue 40:

🍰 We don't just have a boing ball on the cover - we've interviewed the man who thought it up - Amiga sound engineer extraordinaire, Sam Dicker!

🍰 Paul gets together with Marcus Dyson, Maff Evans, Ben Vost and more to talk about the good old days

🍰 Jonah speaks to Sue White from the art department about how AF got its unique look

🍰 Jason Brown (née Holborn) tells what life as a technical editor was like

🍰 Neil Jackson takes a look at the new Amiga port of The Settlers II

🍰 Andy Nuttall revisits his AF Putty review for another go

🍰 Ben Vost talks about the past and future of LightWave

🍰 Eric Schwartz joins us to talk about his art being featured in AF

Just a snippet of an AF-packed issue! We hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed making it!
