Last week Busted, this week McFly?! McFly have started to tease fans with some cryptic posts, along with a revamped website. Taking to their socials, for the first time since January, McFly have posted three times on Instagram over the last few days.

The first post is a video of someone putting a game cartridge called Power to Play, into a Game Boy Color, before throwing it onto a sofa.

The second post shows McFly member Tom Fletcher playing on his electric guitar before the screen goes pixelated and the words 'Game Over, insert coins to continue' flash up on the screen.

Now in a third post, Danny Jones can be seen playing the guitar before, once again the screen goes pixelated and says 'Game Over'. What could it all mean?

In a similar theme, the band's website has had a makeover with a game progress bar on the home page with a countdown underneath, thought to be counting down to a time on Wednesday 29th March. The website also has an option to sign up to their mailing list.

The band also took to TikTok to tease their fans even further, asking: 'Who's around next week?'. 👀

Without any further details from Tom Fletcher, Danny Jones, Dougie Poynter, and Harry Judd fans have been speculating as to what these latest posts could mean. One wrote: 'IM SO HYPED 🙌🙌🙌🙌 ', (sic) another said: 'OMG!! New music? Tour? 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼', with a third saying: 'OMG TEASER FOR NEW MUSIC😍😍😍😍💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖'.

McFly formed back in 2003 and have released six albums including five which were in the UK Top 10. They also teamed up with their Busted friends creating the supergroup McBusted in 2014 and 2015.

Last week, Busted announced they would be reuniting for their 20th anniversary and going on tour later this year, take a look at other tours to look forward to this year...
