"There isn't a better tool for the management of press outreach in the video game space, in fact there isn't one that even comes close. We love that some of our clients use PressEngine too, it’s added clarity and a healthy dose of democratisation for indies too.”

Gary Burns

"I've been using PressEngine from day one when we started with Pirate PR. It's been vital for getting some of our games that much-coveted MetaCritic rating (and OpenCritic too). Two thumbs up from me and a wink from the eye not covered with an eye-patch!”

How much time does it take to manage PR?

Let us introduce you to our platform if you're...

...managing contacts on a spreadsheet, or a generic email platform not designed for the nuances of the video game industry.

All your contacts, managed. Choose from curated segments for targeted outreach, saved audiences, or refine an audience for specific releases.

...checking each outlet website manually, to see if they've covered your press release or written a review about your latest title.

PressEngine automatically finds coverage and can send an alert to you and your teams, via Slack, MS Teams, Discord, RSS readers or on the platform.

...having to remember so many logins, to use all the sites you need just to manage PR outreach, check coverage, manage keys..

One login, with all the functionality you need to send outreach, manage review code, track social and video data, and setup events.

Get to know the platform that manages your contacts for you, discovers coverage automatically, and has all the tools you need in one place.

No more painful mail-merge, it's time to give up manually updating your video game contacts list.

Use a platform that makes it easy to send targeted outreach, pre-sell campaigns, release updates, or one-click follow-ups and ICYMI's. Send multi-stage code offers with embargo agreements, updates to code recipients, and invitations to launch events and demo booths. Easily attach press kits, embed YouTube videos or assets to your comms, with detailed reporting on every interaction, and wrap up your admin with automated coverage discovery across editorial and video

Can you be sure everyone you're talking to is who they say they are? Every single contact is verified and checked.

What if every time you sent an email something automatically updated the contacts and removed those who are no longer there, and that the people you were sending a press release to would actually read it. Or, when a contact from Gamespot requests code, you could trust that it wasn't someone looking for an easy key to resell.

We check every single person registering on PressEngine. They are who they say they are.

Introducing Event Management

Invite media and influencers to your booths, launch parties, showcases and much, much more, just as easily as you send a campaign.

Easily prioritise top media or influencers, and send exclusive personal invites. Manage your schedule, easily reschedule appointments, create waiting lists. All in PressEngine.

Media and influencers can also manage their schedule, for free, giving your event much more discoverability.

Stop spending hours scouring websites, looking for coverage. Our automated tools find and analyse the coverage for you.

Campaign driven coverage, organic coverage, search engine results listings, Twitch streamers, YouTube content creators and podcasters; we could list more, but you get the picture. Take advantage of in-depth outlet analysis, readership intentions and sentiment analysis.

Say goodbye to coverage spreadsheets, fiddling with confusing reporting tools, or opening thirty tabs at once to see who's written about your games.

We actively empower press and content creators to create coverage for their keys. What would you do for 100% coverage?

Have you just accepted that the industry norm for coverage from review code is around 20%? You shouldn’t have to accept mediocrity - neither do we - and we've got the results to prove it.

Games on PressEngine consistently achieve above 80% coverage. In fact, some titles reach the heady heights of 100% - and we share our coverage rate publicly.

80.00%

Our key-to-coverage ratio is the best in the industry, driving engagement and discoverability of new titles.

We actively empower press, influencers and content creators with the ability to easily provide coverage, and provide them the tools by which to monitor their coverage rate.

The key-to-coverage rate is a direct feed from our platform and was correct as of 09:52am, 17th November 2021. It represents the number of keys for which we have review coverage from press, content creators, influencers and steam curators, across all titles, for the past three months. Updating in 52s.

We use the data we collect to write insightful articles about game discoverability.

Our articles cover topics such as game discoverability, how-to's on getting your games in front of press and content creators, as well as insights into the data we look at every day.
