About Gaming Trend Wire

What we cover

Gaming Trend Wire reports on video games and the industry behind them: news, scored reviews, previews, features, guides, hardware and esports, plus platform hubs and per-game coverage hubs. Four dedicated desks carry their own rules, enforced by our publishing software: gambling-industry coverage (editorial only, never offers), web3 gaming (mandatory position disclosure, no price predictions), 18+ games (behind an age gate, unlisted from the rest of the site), and brain training (benefit claims tied to linked studies).

Every article aims to answer four questions: what happened, why it matters, what evidence supports it, and what is still uncertain. Reviews additionally show the platforms we tested, the hours we played, and whether the publisher supplied the code.

What we are, and what we are not

We are an independent publication. We are not a game store, a publisher, an esports organisation, a betting operator, or an official representative of any studio or company we cover. We take no money from the companies we cover except through clearly labelled advertising, our gambling desk carries no offers or affiliate links at all, and nothing we publish is financial, legal or gambling advice.

How we label our reporting

Paid content is always marked "Sponsored" and never appears in the gambling desk. Every source an article relies on is listed at the end of the piece, labelled by kind and by whether it is independent of the vendor. Age-restricted coverage is marked 18+ and kept behind a gate. Our Editorial Standards page explains this in full.

Ownership

Gaming Trend Wire is founded, owned, and operated by Yash Malviya. It is an independent publication with no parent company, and it is not owned by, funded by, or affiliated with any brand, company, or organization it covers. If that ever changes, for example if the publication incorporates or takes on outside investment, we will update this page to say so.
