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.

Additionally, SYFY is scaling and expanding its editorial division SYFY WIRE to infuse breaking genre news, in-depth analysis and thought-provoking original content across its entire ecosystem. Through SYFY WIRE's website (http://syfywire.com) and on air via future program development, programming integrations and regular interstitials and lower thirds, SYFY WIRE will cover the latest and greatest in genre TV, film, books, comics, gaming and technology.
