Which platforms and game genres does MyGamer review?

Updated

MyGamer reviews games across PC, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, and PS5, and its coverage spans beat-'em-ups, simulation games, indie horror, strategy survival, and retro or niche platforms. If you want to know whether a specific game or genre is likely to appear, the site's recent reviews and news posts show a clear pattern: it covers both mainstream console releases and smaller indie titles, including Early Access versions.

Platforms covered

Based on the site's recent reviews and news items, MyGamer's platform coverage includes:

  • PC — including Steam Early Access titles
  • Nintendo Switch
  • Xbox One
  • Xbox Series X/S (XSX)
  • PS4
  • PS5
  • Retro and niche hardware — such as the Japan-exclusive PocketStation

The site's tagline explicitly frames its scope as "From PC to Consoles," which matches the mix of platforms seen in its review list.

Genres covered

MyGamer's recent content shows a broad genre range rather than a single specialty:

Genre Example from site coverage
Beat-'em-up King's Blade (XSX), Fallen City Brawl
Simulation Car Wash Simulator (PC, Early Access), Pixel Washer
Indie horror Mister Scary – Where Are You?
Strategy / survival Infection Free Zone (XSX, Early Access)
Retro / niche 90-Second PocketStation reviews (e.g., Pocket MuuMuu's ALIENS)
Action / arcade Angle of Attack (2D jet fighter)

This suggests the site is not limited to AAA blockbusters or a single genre. It regularly covers indie releases, smaller publishers (such as Ratalaika Games and EastAsiaSoft), and retro curiosities alongside more conventional console games.

Review formats

MyGamer uses more than one review format, which affects what you'll find:

  • Full reviews — standard-length assessments of new releases, such as King's Blade (XSX) and Moros Protocol (PS5).
  • Early Access reviews — coverage of games still in development, such as Car Wash Simulator and Infection Free Zone.
  • Short-form reviews — brief formats like the "90-Second PocketStation Review" series, which covers retro Japan-exclusive titles.

If you're checking whether a game you care about has been reviewed, note that Early Access and retro titles appear alongside full retail releases, so the absence of a game from the main review list doesn't necessarily mean it's outside the site's scope.

How to check if your game or genre is covered

  1. Go to the Reviews section of MyGamer.
  2. Scan the most recent review headlines — they list the platform in parentheses (e.g., "King's Blade (XSX) Review").
  3. Check the News section for announcements about upcoming or newly released games, which often indicate future review coverage.
  4. For retro or niche platforms, look for the short-form review series, which are labeled separately from standard reviews.

The site also maintains sections for Videocasts, Blog Articles, Previews, and Forums, so coverage of a game may appear outside the Reviews section as well.

What this means for you

If you follow indie games, simulation titles, beat-'em-ups, or retro hardware, MyGamer's review mix is likely to include relevant coverage. If you're looking for a specific platform, the site covers all current major consoles plus PC, and it does not appear to restrict itself to one ecosystem. The main caveat is that coverage is editorial and selective — not every release gets a review, and Early Access titles may be reviewed before their final version.
