Club laid off three roles, including two full-time gaming editors who joined from Endless Mode, and will refocus on film and TV coverage, effectively ending Paste Games as a standalone gaming vertical and folding its coverage back into The A.V. Club. This move underscores ongoing shifts in gaming media under Paste Media’s ownership and marks the latest setback for the Paste Games legacy.
