Retro Gamer Retro Gamer is a British magazine, published worldwide, covering retro video games. It was the first commercial magazine to be devoted entirely to the subject. Although launched in January 2004 as a quarterly publication, "Retro Gamer" soon became a monthly. In 2005, a general decline in gaming and computer magazine readership led to the closure of its publishers, Live Publishing, although the rights to the magazine were later purchased by Imagine Publishing. It was taken over by Future Publishing on 21 October 2016, following Future's acquisition of Imagine Publishing and its print portfolio.
