that is the reason the network juniors have a much harder time to become senior by learning the ropes.

#NMS is the most helpful and kind gaming community I have been part of. With mostly players that seem to want to give and support others (and not so much into the pvp thing) their desire for faction tension seems to have failed.

I have conversations with a LOT of players and don't know a single person that is happy about the manufactured tension (or the inability to progress) (j g) #NoMansSky #Expedition22 #TheSwarm

Playable Heritage: Major UK Conference in Edinburgh to Map the Future of Video Game Preservation

On Wednesday 16 September 2026, the National Museum of Scotland in Edinburgh will host a landmark event: Playable Heritage: Creating a Collaborative Framework for Collecting Video Game Culture. Co-hosted by National Museums Scotland, the National Library of Scotland, the National Videogame Museum, and Ukie, this free, one-day conference represents a major, coordinated attempt to build a UK-wide roadmap for digital preservation.

The conference arrives at a time of growing global recognition of the cultural and historical value of digital media. With games now firmly established as a significant creative medium, the challenge of capturing, curating, and preserving their heritage has moved from a niche academic pursuit to a priority for national organisations, institutions and the wider industry.

A Unifying Moment for UK Heritage

What makes this conference particularly significant is the breadth of the coalition involved. It brings together national galleries, libraries, industry trade bodies, academic institutions, and game developers to address the complex technical, legal, and curatorial hurdles of preserving an ever-evolving interactive medium.

I am incredibly pleased and proud that I / the Scottish Games Network, have been invited to participate in this important conversation. I will be chairing the opening panel session of the day: How Do We Collect, Preserve and Share Video Game Heritage?

This day will feature insights from Geoff Belknap, Tacye Phillipson, and Mhairi Maxwell from National Museums Scotland, Matthew Horsfall from the Science Museum Group, Natalie Kane from the V&A, and John O’Shea from the National Videogame Museum. Together with historians Nick Webber and Esther Wright, the event will explore the criteria required to make value judgements on what to collect and how to capture the living history of the incredible digital work designed and developed across the UK.

Building on Regional Momentum

For the Scottish games community, this event builds on a series of significant local milestones, including the recently announced video game heritage PhD studentship and the ongoing public consultation by National Museums Scotland. These initiatives prove that Scotland is fast becoming a primary hub for digital preservation research and practice.

The conference will conclude with a session from Mike Dailly of Sumo Digital and Neil Thomas of Retro Collective, titled Oh No! We Left it Too Late, which serves as a timely reminder of the urgency of this work. With physical media decaying and old source code being lost, the window to capture the foundational years of our industry is actively closing.
