Exciting news for gaming enthusiasts: Game Informer, the renowned gaming publication, is officially back in action! Just over six months after GameStop closed it down in August 2024, the entire team has been brought back by Gunzilla Games, the developer behind the free-to-play extraction battle royale game Off the Grid and the blockchain ecosystem GunZ. In a heartfelt 'Letter From the Editor,' Game Informer's Editor-In-Chief, Matt Miller, announced that Gunzilla Games acquired the rights to Game Informer from GameStop with a strong commitment to preserving its editorial independence. Miller emphasized that the new owners are fully supportive of the team making 100% of the editorial decisions without any external influence.
Game Informer is now operating under a new entity, Game Informer Inc., bringing back its over 30-year history and legacy. The team has been busy during the hiatus, preparing "dozens" of new game reviews and their Best of 2024 awards to ensure no gaps in coverage. Fans of the print magazine will be thrilled to know it's set to return, with plans to make it "bigger and better than it was before." In the coming weeks, Game Informer will introduce membership and subscription benefits, expand their video, streaming, and feature coverage, and aim to broaden their range of experts and partnerships.
