PC Gamer Announces Editorial Staff Changes and Recent Hires

It's been a busy year in the gaming world, but we'd like to take a short pause to tell you about some changes to the PC Gamer team.

Over the past few months, PC Gamer has hired several new editors and promoted longtime members to new positions. These additions make the PC Gamer team larger and more experienced than ever before in our 30+ year history as a publisher. Some of these new faces and new roles will help build new projects and forms of coverage that we will be announcing soon, while others will be devoted to substantive news, reviews, editorial reaction, and other technology and journalism that supports the more than 800 articles we publish each month (see Did you know we do some fun stuff on TikTok?)

Notably, veteran editor Phil Savage, with more than a decade of experience, has been named global editor-in-chief of PC Gamer and will direct PC Gamer's editorial direction. Phil succeeds Evan Lahti, who has been named director of strategy.
