Level Up Your Gaming Nights
Weekly raid logs, no-hype reviews and deep esports breakdowns from a crew that actually finishes the games. Straight from Yorkville to your controller.
Who we are
Built by players, for players
PixelRaidVanguard started in a cramped Yorkville apartment in 2016 as a shared Google Doc of raid notes. Nine years and 1,400+ posts later, we're still the same three-person crew logging every wipe, world-first attempt and patch note.
We buy our own copies, we finish the campaigns, and we never take money to inflate a score. If a game respects your time, we'll tell you — and if it doesn't, we'll tell you that too.
How we work
Slow takes over hot takes
A review only publishes once someone here has cleared the main story and a chunk of the endgame — usually 30 to 80 hours in. That's why our verdicts land a little later than launch-day churn, and why they age better.
Every raid log is timestamped, every benchmark is on real hardware we own, and every correction is left visible at the bottom of the post.
