Video Games Chronicle (VGC)
The Premier British Investigative and Scoop-Driven Modern Gaming Newsroom
Founded in 2019 by former CVG editor Andy Robinson, Video Games Chronicle (VGC) rapidly established itself as the industry's most reliable outlet for exclusive reporting and studio intelligence.
Reviving the Legacy of CVG
VGC was launched in May 2019 by Andy Robinson alongside a cadre of experienced UK gaming journalists previously helming Computer and Video Games. The parent company, 1981 Media Ltd, was named after the founding year of CVG, aiming to restore old-school investigative rigor and deep studio sourcing to contemporary online games journalism.
