About Erik Petrovich
Erik began his career in online media and games coverage after writing for – and eventually running – the Rocky Mountain Collegian at CSU before graduating in 2019. In the last few years, Erik has published more than a thousand guides while also covering the gaming industry across several outlets.
Now a specialist self-publisher at Game Rant, Erik counts himself among the few who have a pretty solid grasp on what's going on in the Souls series – just don't bring up Bloodborne, he never had a PS4 and will start ranting about a PC port.
Favorite Console
Despite being an almost exclusive PC gamer, Erik has always wanted to have a Dreamcast for two reasons: to listen to its startup jingle, and to play Crazy Taxi.
Industry Focus
Erik writes a variety of content including walkthroughs, rankings, lists, and guides that span all kinds of games – but his primary focus is on RPG Guides coverage.
