  • Key Differentiator
    Hardcore Gamer began its life as a printed magazine in 2005. At a time when magazines were shutting down, we did the opposite. Within months, hundreds of thousands of issues of Hardcore Gamer Magazine were distributed to subscribers internationally. We quickly became a trusted source in the industry, employing only the top writers who were also seriously hardcore about gaming. In 2010, with the ever-expanding internet becoming the clear journalistic focus of the world, we shifted online.
