Leon Hurley runs GamesRadar's guides section as Managing Editor for the section, writing and planning guides with his team, and overseeing all the tips coverage on the site across PlayStation, Xbox, PC and Switch. He's mostly plays horror, action adventure, FPS and open world games, with a love of low poly horror and big narrative adventures. So games like Iron Lung, Resident Evil, God of War Ragnarok, Horizon, anything Bethesda and so on. He's currently playing things like Starfield and Spider-Man 2, while looking forward to Full Fathom, Labyrinth Of The Demon King and whatever Cory Barlog is cooking up next. He started his gaming career as a staff writer on Official PlayStation Magazine in the days of PlayStation 2 and has written about games ever since, covering news, reviews, features, hosting video shows and more for titles like Edge, GamesMaster, SFX, and CVG. After working his way up Official PlayStation Magazine to become deputy editor and eventually website editor, he then left to become news editor for Kotaku UK, contributing to both the UK and international sites, before joining GamesRadar in the same role and eventually becoming guides boss. He also has a keen interest in game development, writing about how games are made, why the doors are so big and trying to demystify the whole process. He's also makes his own games in GameMaker and Unity.
