The team at Stride PR has spent years acquiring the skill sets to generate media coverage in the game industry. The below are an example of the most commonly requested PR activities we receive and implement.

News Articles

If you have a product or service announcement, release or major update, make sure your target audience is aware. Our media list is one of the most extensive in the industry and we know the right individuals, times and techniques to request media coverage.

Previews

After generating awareness for a game or service, we request editors try it and share their thoughts with their audience. Our resumes cite thousands of previews generated from our outreach.

Interviews

Do you want to raise a company spokesperson’s profile? How about build relationships with editors and their audiences? We set up interviews to achieve these goals.

Reviews

As you know, many gamers will only purchase a title if the site they trust most positively reviews the game. We get games in the hands of the right editors, so they can decide if it is worth recommending to their audience. We also pay attention to editor preferences, because like all gamers, some reporters prefer one genre over another.

Trade Shows / Fan Events

If you want to maximize your presence at an event like PAX or E3, make sure you are working with a team that has a proven track record of scheduling appointments with the editorial teams of high-traffic sites.

Media Tours

One of the most effective ways to obtain placements is visiting editors in their offices. We have scheduled appointments with your top targets for other developers. Let us take you next.
