Daniel is a News Writer from the United Kingdom. Relatively new to the industry with just over three years of experience, he has focused on establishing himself in the gaming space, with bylines in other sites such as CheatCC and Destructoid.

While he focuses on open-world titles and RPGs, he also takes a keen interest in the eSports scene, which he feels will only continue to grow over the next few years.

His gaming history spans over two decades, and he's been playing for as long as he could hold a controller. Nowadays, he's more adept with a mouse and keyboard in hand, and can usually be found playing Counter-Strike when not writing.

Steam users can currently pick up 2018 survival horror game Remothered: Tormented Fathers completely free of charge. The game is the latest title to drop as part of Steam's Free to Keep promotion, and will return to its full $19.99 price tag on June 8.
