Now I've got a bit of free time, I'm going to get back into covering the CDL this season through my recently revived Medium blog. Here's all the intel on the first #CDL Major ahead of its qualifiers beginning on Friday: #esports #callofduty medium.com/@Jonno_Nicho...

I’m still on the hunt for more freelance and full-time writing gigs in gaming and esports. I’ve written for Esports Insider, GGRecon, Radio Times, GameRant and so many more. If you want an experienced pair of hands assisting with any coverage, get in touch!

@pglesports.bsky.social has announced a partnership with @asusrog.bsky.social for the upcoming Singapore Major. For the first time in Major history, OLED monitors will feature across the three stages and the playoffs. jonnonicholson.substack.com/p/pgl-asus-r...

Supercell has announced that this year's Clash of Clans World Championship will not feature a live audience. The decision has sparked a wealth of backlash from organisations and fans. jonnonicholson.substack.com/p/clash-of-c...

I’m very much looking for my next opportunity within games and esports media even when jobs are few and far between. I’ve got 12+ years in writing and editorial alongside expertise in Call of Duty and other FPS games. If anyone knows of any leads, do get in touch!

Esports icon Lee 'Faker' Sang-hyeok has become an honourary police officer in South Korea. The six-time League of Legends world champion has also become an ambassador for a cyber gambling reporting initiative in the country. More details: jonnonicholson.substack.com/p/faker-hono...

Team Vitality has announced it has withdrawn from competing in sim racing title RENNSPORT. The French esports organisation cites a lack of sustainability behind its decision. More details: jonnonicholson.substack.com/p/team-vital...

While I look for more stable work, I've been working hard on growing my Substack, which heavily focuses on the world of esports. Do consider a free or paid subscription if you're enjoying the content! jonnonicholson.substack.com

I really need to start using this more 😅 A quick TLDR for any new followers: - Gaming and esports journalist with 12 years of experience. - Looking for full-time and freelance work. - Have an unhealthy obsession with Call of Duty and sim racing.

It’s been a while since I’ve posted on here 😅 Two weeks ago, I was made aware that my role at Esports Insider is at risk of redundancy. I’ve really struggled to find full-time and freelance roles in esports and games media despite possessing12 years of experience. DMs are open/reposts appreciated

While I continue my search for full-time or freelance roles in games media, I've revived my blog focusing on all things Call of Duty! Check it out here: medium.com/@Jonno_Nicho...

After eight months, a regular #freelance gig is coming to an end meaning I am very much open to any freelance or full-time #writing roles in games media! With Assassin's Creed and Fragpunk launching in March, I'm looking to write news, guides, features and reviews. DMs are open/RTs appreciated!

It's been a hectic January but I am still actively looking for my next full-time or freelance role within games media! 2025 marks 11 years since I started writing and it would be great to find somewhere where I can lend my expertise. All leads/RTs are appreciated.

With 2025 now here, I’m still actively looking for freelance or full-time roles within games media. 📝 Over a decade of experience in writing and editorial across several websites. 🧠 Expertise across multiple genres ranging from FPS to sports simulation. DMs are open and RTs appreciated!

Latest for Esports Insider! The Esports World Cup Foundation has expanded its partner programme from 30 to 40 teams with the aim of attracting orgs from China, the Americas and MENA regions: esportsinsider.com/2024/12/espo...

Another one for Esports Insider 🙂 This time around, I covered the news of PUBG Mobile securing a partnership with Saudi Arabian tourism megaproject Qiddiya in a deal which sees both parties collaborate to grow the game's esports presence. esportsinsider.com/2024/12/pubg...

Sad to see XDefiant shut down. Feel that missing the initial launch date when interest in Call of Duty was at an all-time low ultimately sealed its fate before it had a chance to shine.

$10 for a 500-word news piece is absolute extortion. I started my career earning £5 and an additional 2p per unique page view and it sucks to see some huge sites still paying criminally low rates.

My freelance schedule for December is still relatively free! If you’re looking for anyone for gaming news, guides, features or reviews, I am available immediately. DMs are open and all RTs appreciated.

My latest piece for Esports Insider is live. PUBG Esports has launched its Global Partner Team application process for 2025. Teams selected will guarantee chances to compete in international competitions. esportsinsider.com/2024/12/pubg...

Calling the SC after two cars got a puncture is a total joke. Stewarding this season has been a shambles.

I still have some space in my December schedule for any sites looking for news, guides, features or reviews. All RTs are appreciated!

Verstappen had that covered since performance of the Red Bull started to dip. Very well deserved champion this season.

Bad news, #BlackOps6 fans. Hackers have already infested Ranked Play just hours after its launch. My latest piece for VideoGamer: www.videogamer.com/news/black-o...

Red Bull Racing's sim racing team has secured a deal with gaming controller manufacturer SCUF Gaming. The deal includes a branded range of controllers alongside SCUF's logo featuring on the team's cars during sim racing competitions. Read more: esportsinsider.com/2024/11/orac...

Attempted to get F1 75 Live tickets this morning. Sold out in under 10 minutes and got nowhere in the queue. Loads of tickets already being resold for extortionate prices. What a shambles.

It appears the Black Ops 6 Season 1 update has rolled out several hours earlier than planned.

Love the history of the Monaco GP along with qualifying being the best session of the year but unless it rains, the races are often dull. About time they attempt to revise the track for the bigger cars if it's sticking around until 2031.

With Q4 underway and Christmas approaching, I am still looking for any freelance or full-time writing positions in games media. Some links to my work: - Gfinity: gfinityesports.com/author/jonno... - Esports Insider: esportsinsider.com/author/jonno... - GameRant: gamerant.com/author/jon-n...

I think the burnout has finally hit me.

Freelance video game journalists are propping up the industry, and many are being paid dogshit in return: aftermath.site/freelance-vi...

12 years since Black Ops 2 was released. If it wasn't for that game, I probably wouldn't be writing about games.

This app is great. So many lovely people from the games industry and plenty of awesome content to engage with.
