Polygon
An American entertainment website called Polygon posts blogs, reviews, how-to videos, news, guides, and blogs largely about video games, but also about comic books, television, movies, and other media. Vox Media, a media and technology business that also owns The Verge, SB Nation, and Vox, is the owner of it.
Chris Grant, who had previously held the position of Joystiq's editor-in-chief, founded Polygon in October 2012. With a concentration on long-form articles, multimedia content, and social media interaction, the site's objective was to give in-depth coverage of video games and the gaming industry.
Since then, Polygon has developed into one of the top gaming portals on the internet. It has received multiple honors, including the Best Gaming Website and the Webby Award for Best Blog. Additionally, the website has received accolades for its coverage of inclusion and diversity in the gaming industry.
The content that Polygon creates is not limited to its website; it also includes podcasts, live broadcasts, and video essays. A strong user base contributes to the website through forums, comments, and social media. This makes the website essential reading for any player.
