In May 2025, Vox Media sold ''Polygon'' to Valnet and promptly laid off most ''Polygon'' staff; as of May 2025, this event's long-term impact on reliability is unknown. Editors have expressed concern over the site's ownership by Valnet, which runs several content farms. Articles should be evaluated on a case-by-case basis until the status of editorial deterioration is confirmed. ''See also: [[WP:VALNET]]''
