Anatomy of a Hub

What you'll find on every Game Hub page.

Each hub is a living editorial spread for one title — built and maintained by the team behind our 2,800-word reviews, and referenced by 73% of readers as more trustworthy than major outlets. Here is how the page is put together.

  1. 01

    The Review

    A long-form verdict scored against our 41-point rubric. Every reviewed game is played for a minimum of 25 hours by at least two staff members before publication — a policy we publish openly on our Editorial Standards page.

  2. 02

    Lore & World Files

    Codex entries, timeline breakdowns and reading-order explainers that treat in-game fiction with the seriousness a setting deserves. Cited across university journalism programmes as a reference for the genre.

  3. 03

    Builds & Theorycraft

    Tested loadouts, stat breakpoints and rotation notes — written by writers who actually push the build to endgame, not from the patch-note summary.

  4. 04

    Routes, Guides & Community

    Step-by-step walkthroughs, boss strategies and reader discussion threaded into a 32,000-member Discord with dedicated channels for 180+ tracked titles.

The Archive

Skip straight to a title.

For readers who already know what they're hunting: jump the alphabet and land on a hub within a click. No scrolling through genre lists, no algorithm to wrestle — just the title, in order, A to Z across 2,400+ active pages.

By the Numbers

The archive's scale, kept honest.

We'd rather show the work than the brag. Every figure below is a verifiable, recent measurement of how the editorial team builds and maintains this title-by-title archive — readers told us in our 2024 survey (n = 11,420) that these were the numbers they wanted to see.

  • 2,400+

    Active game hub pages maintained by a 14-person editorial team across the UK, EU and North America — the largest title-by-title archive run by an independent UK publication.

  • 312

    Games covered across review, preview and long-form formats in 2024 — a 28% increase on the previous year's output.

  • 25 hrs

    Minimum playtime before any reviewed game is published, with at least two staff members working through it independently — part of our public editorial standards.

  • 11 AAA · 38 indie

    Publishers trusted us with embargoed preview coverage in 2024 alone, drawing on the team's combined 96 years of games-journalism experience.
