Kotaku UK is live

Future’s UK Kotaku site is now up and running in the UK.

The site, the existence of which was revealed by MCV last month, is edited by Keza MacDonald. Also now named on the staff is news editor Leon Hurley, who joins from Official PlayStation Magazine.

The launch of Kotaku UK allows us to offer our commercial partners greater reach than ever and a significant new vehicle to reach highly engaged gamers,” Future’s head of digital film, games and technology Keith Walker said.

I’m thrilled Square Enix are official launch partners, and it’s great to have Leon on board as news editor – his knowledge and passion for gaming makes him the perfect candidate for the role. Kotaku UK allows us to speak directly to a completely new set of gamers while giving current fans everything they love about Kotaku but with some added UK flavour.”

[Industry news] Core Keeper’s ancient Core becomes a one of a kind gaming PC, to be won for charity

More than 4 million people have played Core Keeper, and every one of them started the same way, waking in a dark cavern beside an ancient Core that has lain dormant for aeons. Pugstorm and Fireshine Games, the game's developer and publisher, have now worked with Scan to build that Core into a real gaming PC. It is one of a kind, and it is the prize in the Global Games Draw, a new prize draw for Into Games, a UK charity that helps young people from working class backgrounds into careers in games. Every entry raises money for that work.
