GameInformer is Back from the Dead

GameInformer Returns…

GameInformer an American monthly video game magazine featuring articles, news, strategy, and reviews of video games and game consoles. It debuted in August 1991, and was shutdown by GameStop in 2024.

Game Informer announced its return on its own website and via a YouTube video. The entire Game Informer team that was at the company when it shut down last year is returning full-time and it’s all happening under a new owner. Gunzilla has acquired Game Informer from GameStop and will give Game Informer total editorial control, meaning there will be no outside influence on what Game Informer produces. Gunzilla is District 9 director Neill Blomkamp’s video game studio which is also responsible for the Battle Royale game Off the Grid.

Growing up my Dad and I read GameInformer together every month excited to see what games were going to be discussed. My personal favorite issue was and still is “Batman Arkham City.”
