  • Find and commission stories at the intersection of fandom and science, tech, and celebrity news.
  • Interview developers, gamers, executives, actors and anyone else involved in a hot story about the latest video game or movie, whether that’s on the phone or via video call.
  • Cover press events and create content plans around major conventions and conferences.
  • Set up, manage, and write live blogs on the biggest events in gaming and entertainment
  • Assist Director of News in leading IGN news coverage during West Coast hours

  • Collaborate with the previews team to identify prominent topics and discussions that can be broken out as news segments.

Job Qualifications: 
  • You have an established experience as an editor, and news reporter in games, entertainment, and/or tech.
  • You consider yourself embedded in tracking news, and can identify the most interesting and newsworthy details of a story.
  • You have regularly covered trade shows and conventions.
  • You understand how to write for IGN's audience and can optimize your pieces for both search and organic discovery.
  • You know how to build up rapport, trust, and support by engaging games and entertainment enthusiasts.
  • You have good camera presence and can speak extemporaneously on games and entertainment-related topics.
  • You have established contacts in the gaming, tech, and/or entertainment industries.
  • You are familiar with online spaces where fandoms gather, including subreddits, Discords, and social media
  • You are an active player of video games, regularly dipping into the latest big releases, and watch blockbuster movies and hot streaming shows as a matter of course
  • The video games, movies, and shows you love, you really really love, and you spend plenty of time fussing over hot topics, lore, and meta changes
