Eurogamer was founded in Brighton in September 1999 byRupert andNick Loman and has been covering video games ever since. The site began life with a PC focus and a keen interest in the competitive FPS scene of the time, but over the years it has grown to cover every aspect of gaming - PC, console, indie, board games and anything else that the team and the site's readers find interesting.

Alongside Eurogamer in 1999, its parent company Gamer Network was also launched, which now includesGamesIndustry.biz,Rock Paper Shotgun andVG247, along with regional versions of Eurogamer inGermany,Spain,Poland andPortugal. In 2018, Gamer Network was acquired by RELX and later sold to IGN Entertainment in 2024.

In 2008 Eurogamer also started the video game show EGX, launched as part of the London Games Festival, and subsequently the PC and indie show Rezzed in 2012. Today, both EGX and Rezzed are run independently from Eurogamer and Gamer Network.

Eurogamer has won numerous awards, including Best Game Websitemultiple times at the GMAs, Best Online Editorial Team at theGames Media Brit List, and most recently Media Brand of the Year atMCV/DEVELOP.
