Summary

Kotaku articles written from 2023 onwards are generally unreliable as the site has used content farms and AI-generated content in a non-transparent manner. In March 2025, Kotaku Australia's domain was usurped by the unaffiliated Kotaku Times, an AI-generated content mill.[1] See also: Kotaku (pre-2023).
