    About

    GamesRadar+ operates as a major digital entertainment outlet owned by the UK-based media conglomerate Future plc. The brand launched in November 2014 after merging several of Future's existing titles including Total Film, SFX, Edge, and Computer and Video Games into a single platform. This strategic consolidation shifted the site from a pure gaming focus to a broader lifestyle approach covering movies, TV shows, and comics alongside core video game coverage.

    The editorial team maintains headquarters in the United States while keeping strong roots in the United Kingdom under the leadership of Future plc executives. James Murdoch serves as the CEO of the parent company overseeing the portfolio that includes the Golden Joysticks Awards and the Future Games Show. The brand generates revenue through display advertising, affiliate marketing, and direct-to-consumer subscriptions like the two-year plan offered at approximately $34.00.
