Editorial Policy

Accuracy

We aim to publish information that is accurate at the time of publication.

Whenever possible, factual claims are checked against reliable sources such as:

Official game and publisher announcements

Developer communications

Patch notes and release notes

Official documentation

First-hand testing

Other credible primary sources

Gaming information can change quickly, especially after patches, updates, balance changes and new releases. When we identify material outdated or incorrect information, we aim to correct or update it.

Corrections and updates

If a significant factual error is discovered, GamerNomad may correct the article and, when appropriate, add an update or correction note explaining what changed.

Minor edits such as spelling, grammar, formatting or wording improvements may be made without a correction notice when they do not change the meaning of the article.

Readers who believe an article contains an error can contact us through our Contact page.

Sourcing and attribution

We aim to make the origin of important information clear.

When reporting announcements, statements, statistics or other material claims, we may link to or identify the original source whenever doing so helps readers verify or understand the information.

We distinguish between:

Confirmed information

Reports from third parties

Analysis or interpretation

Rumors or unverified claims

Editorial opinion

Rumors and leaks should not be presented as confirmed facts.

Guides

Gaming guides are written to provide practical help to players.

Where appropriate, guides may be based on direct gameplay experience, official information, testing, research or a combination of these sources.

Because games change over time, some guides may require updates after patches, expansions or major gameplay changes.

We aim to make instructions clear, practical and easy to follow without unnecessary filler.

News coverage

Our news coverage focuses on developments that are relevant to players.

We aim to separate confirmed facts from speculation and provide enough context for readers to understand why a story matters.

Headlines should accurately represent the content of the article and should not intentionally mislead readers for clicks.

Reviews

Reviews represent editorial judgments based on the experience and assessment of the reviewer.

We aim to distinguish subjective opinions from factual claims and explain the reasoning behind important conclusions.

When relevant, reviews may disclose circumstances that could affect the reader's understanding of the review, including:

Review copies or access supplied by a publisher or developer

Pre-release access

Significant technical limitations

The platform or version reviewed

Major content that was unavailable during the review period

Providing access to a game does not guarantee positive coverage.

Independence and commercial influence

Editorial conclusions should not be determined by advertisers, sponsors, affiliate relationships or other commercial partners.

Paid arrangements should not guarantee positive coverage or favorable editorial opinions.

When a commercial relationship is relevant to an article, we aim to disclose it clearly.

Conflicts of interest

Writers and editors should avoid situations that could materially compromise editorial independence.

Relevant conflicts of interest should be disclosed when necessary for readers to properly evaluate the coverage.

A writer should not knowingly review or report on something where a significant undisclosed personal or financial conflict would undermine the credibility of the work.

AI and automated tools

GamerNomad may use software or automated tools to assist parts of the editorial workflow.

These tools should not replace editorial responsibility.

Content published under GamerNomad remains subject to human review for accuracy, usefulness, originality and compliance with our editorial standards.

Automated output should not be treated as a reliable factual source without appropriate verification.

Originality

We aim to publish original editorial work and properly attribute information, quotations and ideas that come from other sources.

Content from other publications should not be copied or presented as our own.

When another source contributes materially to a story, appropriate attribution should be provided.

Article updates

Published articles may be updated when:

A game receives an important patch or update

New verified information becomes available

A guide becomes outdated

Additional context improves the usefulness of the article

A factual error needs correction

Substantial changes may be identified with an update note when doing so helps readers understand how the article has changed.

Reader trust

Editorial standards exist to protect the usefulness and credibility of GamerNomad.

If you believe we have made a factual error, failed to attribute information appropriately or fallen short of these standards, please contact us through our Contact page.

We review legitimate correction and editorial concerns and aim to improve our coverage when warranted.
