Dom Pepin, Features Editor at VG247, is looking for pitches:

Hello, VG247 is looking for features freelancers for 2023!

If you have something insightful, interesting, or funny to say about an upcoming triple-A game—or title that'll hit either PS Plus or Game Pass soon—email me dom.peppiatt@vg247.com.

Tone: casual, but informed. Article that feels like your well-read mate giving you the lowdown on a new game. No gatekeeping or elitism.

Topic: anything you can enthuse about convincingly. Why should I care about a new Game Pass thing? Why is Sony's next triple-A behemoth risky?

Also, if you're a big service game player (Destiny, Apex, FF14, Sea of Thieves, GTAO, et al) let's talk about what we can do in 2023

How is the game changing, why should new players care, are old players missing out, is the death knell near?

Rates start at £120.
