[ FANTASIA FESTIVAL 2025 ]
    Tai is the middle-aged owner of an Internet cafe, but unfortunately, it's not doing so well. It's mostly empty, especially because, as his landlord points out, kids play games on their phones nowadays. He decides to participate in the Hong Kong One Shot Esports tournament and hopefully win the grand-prize money to save his business. To qualify, he needs to be part of a team, so he recruits Solo, a recently fired esports player facing a decline in his career; Fay, who started working at Tai’s Internet cafe after not lasting long at her previous jobs; and former movie star Octo, who plays games with his elderly wife to help her exercise her brain and fight the degeneration process. Together, they call themselves Happy Hour, and they'll combine their strengths in gaming to win this fierce competition. It ain't over till it's game over!

    Calling all gamers! Are you ready for an absurdly fun ride?! Grab your controllers, because GOOD GAME is the ultimate gaming-movie experience on the big screen. With an exciting mix of badass action and the first-person-shooter perspective of HARDCORE HENRY, it's a total blast! As you're rooting for this underdog team to win this tournament, it's also an inspiring and genuine story loaded with never-give-up spirit. Director Dickson Leung Kwok-Fai makes sure you're constantly locked in and immersed in the narrative, while providing a stylish and high-energy experience that makes you feel like you're part of the game. GOOD GAME is a remarkably entertaining crowd-pleaser that will have you cheering throughout, and we're beyond proud to be celebrating its World Premiere at Fantasia! Game on!
