NEW YORK, NY - MAY 11, 2017 - In advance of its 25th anniversary this September, SYFY today announced a strategic point of view focused on a renewed commitment to the genre and fandom at large.

"As the only television network dedicated to the genre 24/7, we're building the ultimate universe for this passionate community to call home."

Debuting on June 19, SYFY's updated visual identity includes a new logo, typeface and look across all linear, digital, social and experiential platforms.
