After over a decade of corporate ownership, Giant Bomb will now be truly independent. We don’t work for a corporation anymore, we work for you (please let us know where to send our PTO requests and expense reports). We’re not serving an algorithm or executives, we’re serving you, the audience. We want to lean into what’s always made Giant Bomb special, and that’s the people you see and hear on our content, and our extremely passionate community.

Here comes the part that you’re probably expecting!

We want your money. We need your money. Give us money. But for real, this is a big risk we’re taking and keeping Giant Bomb alive is going to rely on the support of the community. As an independent entity now, we can say that all support that we receive from you will go directly towards maintaining and growing Giant Bomb and paying the fine folks that you see on our programming week after week.

    Neat. This was the best possible outcome of the whole mess.

    Whether it’s viable or they will do interesting stuff is anybody’s guess. I’ll be honest, I haven’t been following much GB stuff since the original team left.

    There’s a history of these things turning basically into semi-successful Youtube channels, and who knows if that’s good enough when you also have a website to maintain, but I do wish them the best.
