About Nikita Gill

Nikita Gill writes features and explainers for Gamers Now, with an eye for the stories behind the headline. Her favourites say a lot: Pandemonium! for its oddball PlayStation-era charm and Mario for the kind of platforming that never really goes out of style. Nikita covers major releases, franchise history, rumors and broader context pieces, especially when a story needs a little more patience than the daily news cycle usually allows.
