Stephen Totilo, journalist, editor.

Stephen Totilo is an American journalist whose career has helped redefine how video games are reported and understood. After studying at Columbia’s Graduate School of Journalism, he became MTV News’ first dedicated video game reporter in 2005, bringing serious coverage of the medium to a mainstream audience. Four years later he joined Kotaku, where he rose to become editor-in-chief and spent nearly a decade pushing the site toward deeper reporting, broader cultural coverage, and a more ambitious vision of what games journalism could be.


My guest later joined Axios, building its games coverage through a widely read newsletter before striking out on his own. Now, as the founder and author of the popular Substack Game File, he continues to pursue the stories he believes matter most—combining deep industry reporting with a conviction that games, and the journalism around them, should be taken seriously.
