Future, the international media group and leading digital publisher, today announces that GamesRadar , the premiere source for everything video games, has a brand new look.  The site has undergone a complete overhaul, resulting in a slick new layout, editor curated content in a carousel style slideshow, updated social features, and easier navigation. 

Comprehensive updates to the site include:

•         Clean and modern tile based layout that puts game imagery front and centre.

•         Dynamic and interactive functionality that draws inspiration from the best mobile apps.

•         More space for editors to feature the best content.

•         Social interactions are also brought into focus directly on the home page. Not only can users see who’s interacted with content and get a taste of recent comments – but they can also contribute comments or share to their favourite social networks right from the home page.

•         Everything users need to know about the best games in a dynamic module – again, directly on the home page.

•         Users will never miss out on GamesRadar’s famous Top 7s and other gallery articles, because they’re now featured prominently.

•         Infinitely scrolling content stream allows endless eons of browsing through everything GamesRadar has to offer – without even needing to click.

Sophia Tong, Editor-in-Chief of GamesRadar, says: “We are extremely proud about the latest evolution of GamesRadar.com. The new look and site features help lay the foundation for all the exciting things to come in 2013.” 

Keith Walker, Head of Digital – Entertainment, says: “Our product, editorial and commercial teams have fused together great ideas to produce a fantastic new look site which is sleek, dynamic and interactive. We know our users will love this as much as we do.”
