About Game Rant
Founded in 2009 and acquired by Valnet Inc. since 2019, Game Rant is a Digital Publication run by gamers with articles written for gamers with an emphasis on news, reviews, unique features, and interviews. We aim to tap into the topics and subjects that Game Rant, 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.
Game Rant has participated in a number of pop culture and gaming events from E3 to Gamescom to San Diego Comic-Con. We have also been a voting outlet for The Game Awards, as well as a jury member for Summer Game Fest. Ultimately, our goal is to provide engaging posts that take the initial kernel of a news story and expand upon it in a thoughtful and creative way, giving our readers the context necessary to know why each development in the gaming world matters.

At Game Rant, we believe that gaming deserves writing that matches its creativity and vitality. We don’t just share the same headlines that everyone else does. We strive to provide in-depth resources you won’t find anywhere else. We don’t just tell you what we think: we generate discussion with our in-depth, expert-driven reviews.
- Reviews. We don’t just tell you if a game is awesome. We want you to understand the experience playing it, as well as the story behind the game. Game reviews can and should be just as mature and in-depth as the best film criticism, and that’s what we go for.
- Original insight. An industry that changes as quickly and decisively as gaming needs to be understood by those most affected. We let you understand where the field is, and where it is going. From technological advances to business shakeups, we keep you up-to-date on what matters most.
- Informed Analysis: Our collaborators are gamers, programmers, and industry insiders. Everything we write comes from that crucial intersection of knowledge and fandom, giving you a broader insight than you’ll find anywhere else.
- Thoughtful discussions. Our opinions aren’t the last word- they’re just the beginning. We want to generate interesting, fun, troll-free discussions of games and gaming.
We’re passionate experts. We love gaming, and we want to share that passion with you, and hope to create a space where you can share your thoughts. We love the history of games, and can’t wait to see where they go next. We’re excited to bring our brand of thoughtful and informed opinions with them.
