About Hardcore Gamer

Hardcore Gamer was founded in 2012 and acquired by Valnet Inc. since 2023. The digital gaming publication traces its roots back to a magazine founded in 2005. At a time when magazines were shutting down, it did the opposite. Within months of being founded, hundreds of thousands of issues of Hardcore Gamer Magazine were distributed to subscribers internationally. In 2012, with the ever-expanding internet becoming the clear journalistic focus of the world, Hardcore Gamer was relaunched as an online publication.

Now one of the most frequented gaming journalism publications in the world, Hardcore Gamer has one of the largest active video game review libraries in addition to top video production and heralded long-form content.

Owing to our history, Hardcore Gamer sticks to its mantra: No Nonsense, Just Games. With our staff consisting of veterans of the industry and promising newcomers, we’re a forum where the hardcore gamer’s voice can be represented by the media. After all, we’re one of you.
