Will Freeman

Will Freeman is a freelance video game journalist, copywriter, game event content curator, researcher, speaker, script editor, and consultant, writing across the specialist, consumer and trade press. He has covered games for The Observer and The Guardian for over a decade, and continues to serve the latter. You can find his work in places like Edge, Eurogamer, Kotaku, Trusted Reviews, PCGamesN, IGN, Vice Waypoint and Gamespot. Freeman has also stood as judge for the BAFTA game awards, the Develop Awards and Tiga’s awards. He specialises in covering and consulting on the game industry itself, be it on the technology, design and creativity side of things, or in terms of the business and ecosystem of the sector. He loves the game industry – and its community – as much as the game medium. 

When he’s not working he is a serial hobbyist too, so you can readily find him banging on about arcades and arcade hardware, shmups, yo-yos, birdwatching, shipspotting (really!), Technic LEGO, pretentious/silly electronic music and myriad other distractions.
