National Post rolled out a new section to its online property this week called Post Arcade, it will be led by FP Tech Desk editor Matt Hartley and features reviews and analysis from video game writer Chad Sapieha, as well as lead game expert Daniel Kaszor. Additional content includes the latest industry news and game reviews as well as exclusive insider columns from the country’s top gaming studios working to develop video games.
Smart move on the part of the National Post’s since Canada is the third largest producer of video games in the world — trailing only the United States and Japan – and currently employing approximately 16,000 people across the country, contributing an estimated $1.7-billion in activity to the Canadian economy (according to The Entertainment Software Association of Canada).
