Founded in 2009 and acquired by Valnet in 2019, Game Rant is a Digital Publication run by gamers with articles published for gamers with an emphasis on news, reviews, unique features, and interviews. Their information aims to tap into the topics and subjects that they, as gamers, are most passionate about. Whether it’s theorizing about the future of fan-favorite franchises like Legend of Zelda or offering first looks at new games like Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown through our Game Rant Advance program.

At Game Rant, they believe that gaming deserves writing that matches its creativity and vitality. They don’t just share the same headlines that everyone else does. GameRant strives to provide in-depth publications you won’t find anywhere else. They don’t just tell you what they think: GameRant generates discussion with their in-depth, expert-driven content.

Founded in 2017 by Valnet Inc., TheGamer is a gaming site with a different spin on things. They wrote an extensive expose on workplace abuse at Techland, an oral history on Dragon Age: Origins, and they were the first to report that PlayStation was moving to shut the Vita store down. For all your news, views, and reviews, (and guides, but that doesn’t rhyme), you should bookmark TheGamer.
