Just over six months after GameStop pulled the plug on it in August 2024, Game Informer is making a triumphant return, with the entire team back in action. In a heartfelt 'Letter From the Editor,' Game Informer's Editor-In-Chief, Matt Miller, announced that Gunzilla Games has acquired the rights to Game Informer from GameStop. Gunzilla Games isn't just bringing back the editorial team; they're committed to reviving the full production and beyond.
For those who might not know, Gunzilla Games is the creative force behind the free-to-play extraction battle royale game, Off the Grid, currently in Early Access. They're also the masterminds behind GunZ, a "Layer-1 blockchain ecosystem" designed to empower community-driven economies within AAA games, including Off the Grid. Adding star power to the mix, Neill Blomkamp, the director of District 9 and Chappie, serves as Gunzilla's chief creative officer and co-founder.
Game Informer is back! The entire team is returning and we can't wait to reconnect. Come join us to celebrate the best in games, the people who make games, and the people who play games from around the world.

Miller emphasized that Gunzilla Games is dedicated to preserving Game Informer's independence. The new owners are adamant that the editorial team should retain full control over content decisions, free from any external influence. This commitment to editorial freedom has led to the creation of Game Informer Inc., ensuring the continuation of the website's over 30-year legacy, which was briefly interrupted last August.
The team at Game Informer has been busy during their hiatus, preparing "dozens" of new reviews for games released during their absence, along with their Best of 2024 awards. 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 collaborate with a broader range of experts and partners to enrich their content.
If you're eager to stay in the loop, you can create a new Game Informer account. Early benefits include access to the Game Informer Magazine Archive, an exclusive weekly newsletter, Dark Mode, and Early-Bird Founder Access. Don't miss out on reconnecting with one of the most respected voices in gaming journalism.
