What does a game reviewer do?

As a game reviewer, your job is to review video games and associated content, such as physical items included with the purchase of a game. In this role, you may provide your opinion through a blog, vlog, physical publication, or website. You communicate with publishers to obtain review copies of games and play a certain amount before or immediately after its release. You can work as a game reviewer at the hobby, amateur, and professional levels. Hobbyist reviewers typically post short reviews on game sales platforms like Steam or other online stores. Amateur reviewers write or record longer and more-detailed reviews but receive little or no pay. Professional game reviewers work for major websites and magazines and review games as a full-time job.
