Game Informer Revived: Entire Team Returns Under Neill Blomkamp's Studio

Exciting news for gaming enthusiasts: Game Informer, the beloved gaming magazine and website, is making a triumphant return just over six months after its closure by GameStop in August 2024. The entire team is back on board, ready to dive into the world of gaming once again. In a heartfelt 'Letter From the Editor,' Game Informer Editor-In-Chief Matt Miller announced that Gunzilla Games, the developer behind the free-to-play extraction battle royale game Off the Grid and the blockchain ecosystem GunZ, has acquired the rights to Game Informer from GameStop. Not only is the editorial team returning, but Gunzilla Games is committed to reviving the full spectrum of Game Informer's operations, from production to beyond.

What sets this revival apart is the commitment to editorial independence. Miller emphasized that Gunzilla Games insisted on Game Informer remaining a completely independent editorial outlet. This means the team will have full control over what they cover and how they do it, free from any external influence. This dedication to independence ensures that Game Informer will continue to deliver the honest and insightful content that its readers have come to expect over its 30-year history.

Game Informer is now operating under the new entity, Game Informer Inc., and the website is back online after its brief hiatus. The team has been hard at work, preparing dozens of new reviews for games released during their absence, as well as their Best of 2024 awards. Fans can also look forward to the return of the print magazine, which Miller promises will be "bigger and better than it was before." In the coming weeks, Game Informer will introduce membership and subscription benefits, an expanded scope of video, streaming, and feature coverage, and a broader range of expert perspectives and partnerships.

To stay in the loop with all the latest from Game Informer, interested readers can create a new account on the website. Early benefits include access to the Game Informer Magazine Archive, an exclusive weekly newsletter, Dark Mode, and Early-Bird Founder Access. So, whether you're a long-time fan or new to the Game Informer community, now is the perfect time to reconnect and celebrate the best in games, the people who make them, and the passionate players from around the world.
