Polygon is an American video game website that publishes news, culture, reviews, and videos. At its October 2012 launch as Vox Media’s third property, Polygon sought to distinguish itself from competitors by focusing on the stories of the people behind the games instead of the games themselves. It also produced long-form magazine-style feature articles, invested in video content, and chose to let their review scores be updated as the game changed.
The site was built over the course of ten months, and its 16-person founding staff included the editors-in-chief of the gaming sites Joystiq, Kotaku and The Escapist. Its design was built to HTML5 responsive standards with a pink color scheme, and its advertisements focused on direct sponsorship of specific kinds of content. Vox Media produced a documentary series on the founding of the site.
Polygon publishes video game news, entertainment, reviews, and video. They sought to set their content apart from other games journalism outlets by focusing on the people making and playing the games rather than the games alone. At the site’s outset, Polygon planned to run multiple longform feature articles weekly, which they intended to be comparable in intent to the cover stories of magazines.They also decided to allow their game review scores to be updated as the games were updated, so as to more adequately reflect games that had changed with downloadable content and updates since their original release. The site received criticism for its comparatively low review score given to The Last of Us, which was later increased with the game’s remastered edition. In consideration of games that may differ in quality before and after release, Polygon later began to mark pre-release reviews as “provisional” to defer final scoring until after their public release. Starting in September 2018, the site opted to drop scored reviews for games, as to let their reviewers have more freedom in how they review a game; they will substitute their scoring system for a “Polygon Recommends”, a game that the reviewer, having played enough of the game to make a determination, can stand behind and support for the site. These Recommended titles subsequently will serve as the basis of selection of “Polygon Essentials”, games that the site feels everyone should play.
Polygon’s emphasis on video production expanded in late 2013, and waned in mid-2014 with the loss of video staff and the editorial decision to run fewer feature articles. By 2015, the site began to shift from games-only coverage to pop culture coverage, similar to the scope of rival sites IGN and Kotaku. Polygon’s Minimap podcast was named among iTunes’s best of 2015, and New York praised the site’s Car Boys web series.
The website’s flagship podcast, called The Polygon Show, launched in 2017 and discusses gaming and culture. It was named one of the “10 gaming podcasts every gaming nerd should know” by The Daily Dot in 2018. In May 2018, Polygon launched the YouTube series “Brand Slam”, in which brand mascots battle against one another.
