Super happy to say I'm now open for pitches, so to all the awesome freelancers out there, hit me with the best you've got!
Naturally we're going to lean towards esports content for pitches given that's the site's primary focus, but there's always scope for something juicy about the big upcoming games such as FFVII Remake, Animal Crossing and the likes (given we'll cover those too).
WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR:
Esports: We're primarily an esports brand, so anything connected to the events, the people, the behind the scenes, the business, and the nature of competitive gaming is our bread and butter. All of it. If you've got a story to tell, I'm interested in hearing it.
MMOs: We already cover World of Warcraft to some extent, and MMOs are also part of our strategy going forward, so the same thing applies. MMOs bring people together in a way unlike anything else, so there are definitely some amazing tales to be found. Let me know!
We also do guides for the big games, like Pokémon, Fire Emblem, RDR2 and that kind of thing. Same thing goes for all major upcoming releases, the likes of Final Fantasy VII Remake, Cyberpunk 2077, etc.
And yes, that includes Animal Crossing.
I know you lot are going crazy for that right now.
Indie games aren't usually our thing, but some transcend their status. We're covering the likes of Temtem and Wolcen right now, so by all means, send me something - you never know!
Drop me a line if you have any questions. We're looking to grow, and quality content is naturally part of that. I can't wait to work with all you talented folks out there!
TO PITCH:
If a writer can just drop a link or two to some work in their pitch, and give a little 'about me' or point to their socials, that would also be nice.
As for the pitch itself, just a brief outline, whether or not they have interviews/quotes involved, and what the angle is, we can go from there. Doesn't have to be too detailed, just clear. Naturally given our focus (esports and guides for the big games) we're not going to go for super niche pieces, but if it's something interesting that has a broad appeal I can pitch the suits, then I'll always go to bat for it.
COMPENSATION:
I've managed to lock down a price of up to €250 per piece. I've managed to lock down a price of up to €250 per piece.
LOCATION:
I'll accept pitches from all over, I'm not only going to limit it to US writers when a good story is involved. Anyway, that would be weird - I'm a Brit and we're based out of Paris.
