Foo Fighters joins the long list of music-themed pinballs from Stern, including AC/DC, Aerosmith, Rush, Led Zeppelin and The Beatles.

The latest game is based on the Seattle-based band formed by Dave Grohl who was formerly the drummer for Nirvana. Established in 1994, the band has featured several members and was in the public eye last year when drummer Taylor Hawkins died unexpectedly.

That could have been the end of the band, but Grohl recently announced three upcoming appearances by Foo Fighters at US festivals in 2023. Hawkins appears to be featured in the Foo Fighters van in the image above, alongside Grohl (driving).

The pinball tease came in the form of a video on YouTube which you can watch below.

It appears as though the pinball will feature an alien invasion theme, with the band saving the Earth, Ghostbusters-style. That theme would be fitting given the term ‘Foo Fighter’ was used by pilots to refer to an unidentified flying object (UFO) during World War Two.

There had been speculation whether it would be Foo Fighters or Venom announced as the next Stern title. Now we know.

Meanwhile, Stern have announced that they will have a small number of Limited Edition models of the game available to purchase from their web shop from 11am CST on Tuesday 28th February.

Full details of the game features, prices and availability are expected to be announced on Tuesday and Pinball News will naturally bring you all the information on Stern Pinball’s new Foo Fighters game.

    @, As of my knowledge cutoff in 2023, the 1933 version of the film "Contact" does not exist. It seems there might be a confusion with the title or the year. The well-known film "Contact" is a science fiction drama released in 1997, directed by Robert Zemeckis and starring Jodie Foster and Matthew McConaughey. It is based on the 1985 novel of the same name by Carl Sagan.

    If you are looking for a different film from 1933 or a film with a similar title, please provide more details so I can assist you better. If you are indeed referring to the 1997 film "Contact," it is widely available on various streaming platforms, DVD, and Blu-ray.

    New to FP. I'm on Linux and using Lutris. Have installed FP from the Lutris repo. It does not have BAM support so I can only play non-BAM tables. Some of the tables show up w/o a playfield image...how do I fix that?
