Independent game publications revive bundles in defiance of 'cut-throat competitive market'
Several independent game publications are collaborating on subscription bundles to counter a challenging market characterized by layoffs and closures. Publications like Aftermath, Rascal News, and Rogue are partnering with platforms like Trustfnd to offer discounted bundles, aiming to foster solidarity and mutual support rather than direct competition. While initial experiments show modest financial returns and technical hurdles, the initiative highlights a growing trend of independent media pooling resources to survive and thrive.
