SciFiNow is a monthly magazine produced by Imagine Publishing in the United Kingdom, covering all aspects of the science fiction, horror and fantasy genres. It launched in April 2007.

SciFiNow contains news, previews and reviews, and works with some of the most experienced writers in the field.[citation needed] SciFiNow itself is said[citation needed] to be a "follow-up" of sorts to Highbury's DVD Review before that magazine went to Future Publishing, which also publishes the leading UK SF and fantasy magazine, SFX. SciFiNow, however, has been criticised for factual mistakes and "schoolboy errors"[1] and has yet to approach SFX in terms of popularity or sales[citation needed]. It has not posted an ABC-audited sales figure.[2]

SciFiNow magazine operates from the Imagine Publishing offices in Bournemouth.

In February 2008 a Dutch version of the magazine was launched in The Netherlands. It mostly featured translated articles from the British version with some original content added. Due to low sales the Dutch edition was cancelled in April 2008 after only 3 issues.
