We love journalists
PlayGen projects frequently feature in the press. Is it because we do amazing things? Is it because we believe in the power of games to transform? One thing is for sure, the press seem to love the extra effort we put in for newsworthy projects. We’ve been fortunate enough to feature on BBC, ITV, Channel 4, SKY, CNN, The Times, Guardian, Telegraph, London Metro, The London Paper, New York Times, Financial Times, Daily Mail, Mail on Sunday, The Sun, Evening Standard, The Independant and many more publications.
