"Ex-Kotaku Writers Take Ownership with Launch of New Video Game Site"
Four former Kotaku writers have launched a new subscription-based video game and culture publication called Aftermath. Co-owned by Nathan Grayson, Gita Jackson, Riley MacLeod, and Luke Plunkett, Aftermath aims to discuss the intersection of capitalism and the internet, as well as provide a platform for self-expression and critical analysis of the gaming industry. The publication plans to operate on a sustainable business model by relying on subscriptions rather than advertising revenue. Aftermath will feature articles, podcasts, and Twitch content, and offers three subscription tiers for readers to choose from. The founders hope to find success by centering their audience and providing a unique perspective on video games and related topics.
