About Diana Velásquez Vargas

Diana is a News Writer from Peru. She graduated as a journalist in 2020 and has since gained experience in news, social media, and marketing. Previously, she worked as a tech and gaming news writer in Peru’s most prominent newspaper El Comercio.
Diana has been playing games since forever and still remembers her first time finishing Guitar Hero 3 on PC and the Wii she got for Christmas.
Her favorites are usually RPGs, but any game with a good story will catch her eye. These days, she’s been a little too invested in Genshin Impact while waiting for The Wolf Among Us to finally make a comeback.

Favorite Games

Her current favorites are Genshin Impact and Honkai Star Rail. However, the Batman Arkham and Uncharted series hold a special place in her heart. Persona and Five Nights at Freddy’s are other franchises constantly on her mind.
Diana knows all the Pokémon lore by heart, but she has never played the mainline titles. She does adore Pokemon GO, though.
Recently, she’s been having a lot of fun playing  P5R and Infinity Nikki.

Industry Focus

Covering gaming, tech, and eSports news is her current focus. As a personal goal, she hopes to promote more Latin American indie games. Diana also wants to cover more games that encourage good representation of communities.

Favorite Console

PlayStation, mobile, and PC (with a controller). She is considering saving up for a Nintendo Switch 2 or an ROG Ally.
