The Journey To Bringing Game Informer Back | GI Show

Author: Game Informer June 7, 2025 Duration: 1:32:48
Today is an important day. Game Informer magazine subscriptions are back! And so is the Game Informer Show podcast! We recorded our first episode earlier this week before all the Summer Game Fest announcements and before we had Switch 2s in our hands. Apologies for not talking about the absolute latest in video game news, but this first episode back was always meant to be a catch-up and a rundown of what to expect.

Join Alex Van Aken, Marcus Stewart, Charles Harte, and me as we talk about bringing the magazine back, share what we did during our "time off", and share just a few of the games we've been enjoying recently.

Moving forward, you can expect to hear The Game Informer Show podcast every Thursday, and next week we will have a special on-location SGF episode.

Thanks for resubscribing (or never unsubscribing)! We look forward to coming back and to all your feedback.

Every Thursday, the conversation starts up again with Alex Van Aken, Kyle Hilliard, Marcus Stewart, and Charles Harte. The Game Informer Show is where that weekly chat lives, a place to dig into the headlines, dissect new releases, and sometimes get a first look at what's coming next. It feels less like a formal broadcast and more like pulling up a chair with friends who happen to have their fingers on the pulse of the entire video game world. You'll hear their honest reactions to the week's biggest news, thoughtful reviews that go beyond a simple score, and discussions that can jump from a beloved classic to a hot new indie title in a single segment. The regular crew is often joined by other editors from Game Informer's staff, as well as developers and special guests who bring unique insider perspectives. Tuning into this podcast means getting a comprehensive, entertaining, and deeply informed take on the games you're playing now and the ones you'll be excited about tomorrow. It's a consistent weekly check-in for anyone who wants to stay connected to the broader culture and business of gaming, all delivered with a blend of expertise and genuine enthusiasm that makes the industry feel a little smaller and a lot more interesting.
