GQ Philippines — the Filipino edition of the world’s leading men’s lifestyle, fashion, and luxury magazine — is set to make its debut in Summer 2026 in partnership with MEGA Global Licensing, Inc. (MGLI).
Today, October 10, 2025, marks the announcement of the newest edition of GQ, published under license from Condé Nast and brought to life by MGLI. This new title aims to inspire and inform a global audience on the rich Filipino culture through elevated visuals and compelling narratives.
GQ Philippines now joins MGLI’s distinguished portfolio of titles, which includes Vogue Philippines and Allure Philippines.

“The launch of GQ Philippines marks a bold new era for men’s media in our country,” says Archie G. Carrasco, Publisher, GQ Philippines. “This edition will celebrate Filipino creativity and connect the modern Filipino gentleman to the global stage — redefining style, influence, and the power of Filipino identity worldwide.”
