The Role

Pro Game Guides is the destination for diehard gamers who help players progress through games with in-depth and succinct guides. We’re currently seeking freelance writers to bolster our coverage. This is a fully remote position.

Working with Pro Game Guides is a great opportunity to cover your favorite live-service games and the newest game releases. Our international newsroom is filled with talented, passionate people who are eager to cover a variety of games (and tackle projects outside their gaming comfort zones). Applicants should be motivated self-starters with an attention to detail.

This opening isn't looking for any coverage in particular, so if your interests don't align with any of our other open positions or there are no other open positions, apply here and let us know which games you're most knowledgeable on and would be looking to write about.

Responsibilities:

  • Help cover guides, listicles, and news for new game releases and live service games
  • Regularly update evergreen content
  • Submit clean copy with minimal edits
  • Meet deadlines for publishing stories
  • React to trending topics quickly
  • Write about a variety of topics for the site

Bonus points for:

  • Flexibility covering assignments outside your preference – We love all-rounder gamers!

Qualifications:

  • 1-2+ years of editorial/journalistic experience, specifically focused on entertainment
  • Fluency in English and excellent writing skills
  • Knowledge of SEO practices, WordPress, Trello, and Google Trends

To Be Considered:

Please provide a resume, 1-3 relevant writing samples or a portfolio link (an application without a writing sample will not be considered), and a cover letter that explains your expertise in video games, telling us which games/topics you're most knowledgeable about.

Rates: $11-250 per article depending on length and content type. Rates may vary, depending on location, for international candidates.
