Hi! I'm Zack Zwiezen!
I've been writing about video games for over a decade. In that time I've written for sites like Killscreen, US Gamer, Kotaku, and more.
---
Currently, I'm a staff writer at Kotaku. Before that, I was the site's Weekend Editor. I would run the site on Saturdays and Sundays. I handled all posts, images, social media accounts, and community management. It was a lot! But I've learned a ton and developed a good eye for what people like and what gamers care about.
Now I use those skills to write reviews, news stories, and more!
Some images I've created for articles, lists, reviews, and news stories. All images were made using Photoshop.
