About Dylan Byrne

Dylan Byrne writes news for Gamers Now, covering game updates, release dates, platform news and the steady drip of announcements that keeps players checking back. His gaming taste sits somewhere between losing hours to The Witcher and pretending the next Football Manager save will be the sensible one. Dylan is especially interested in the small changes like patches, delays, storefront updates and developer posts that can end up mattering more than they first appear.
