About DualShockers

Founded in 2009, DualShockers is a gaming publication built for players who want more than surface-level coverage. For over 15 years, we have covered the games industry through news, reviews, features, guides, interviews, opinion, and analysis, with a focus on the games, studios, creators, and trends shaping the medium.

At DualShockers, we are gamers first. Our team is made up of experienced writers, editors, critics, and lifelong players with deep knowledge across console, PC, handheld, and indie gaming. From major AAA releases and industry-defining announcements to hidden gems, RPGs, live-service updates, and the culture surrounding games, our goal is to provide coverage that is useful, thoughtful, and written by people who genuinely understand the space.

DualShockers has long taken a grounded, player-focused approach to games journalism. We report on the biggest stories in the industry, review major and small releases, previews, interviews, and provide practical guides that help players get more out of the games they love. Whether we are covering a major showcase, breaking down a new release, or explaining why a smaller title deserves more attention, we aim to bring clarity, personality, and informed perspective to every piece we publish.

DualShockers has maintained a presence across major gaming industry events, allowing our team to preview upcoming releases, speak with developers, go hands-on with games before launch, and report on the future of the industry directly from the source. Our team has also earned recognition within the gaming space, including industry award nominations.
