My magazine will focus on entertaining and informing readers about gaming, particularly the game Dark Souls. It will provide hints and tutorials to help new players as well as discuss upcoming games and consoles. The target audience is males and females ages 16-34, as my magazine will primarily feature games rated 16 and over. I will be careful not to include offensive content or language that could upset readers and will properly attribute any game logos or names used.

Product’s Purpose:
My product will have multiple purposes like most magazines. My magazine will be game based
and will mainly focus on entertaining while also be somewhat educating. What I mean by
educating is that I will try to inform the audience. For example my magazine is also based on dark
souls and I will give hints and tutorials for new players. I will also talk about how new upcoming
game consoles will work. To entertain the audience I will talk about new games and explain the
plot and style.
Genre:
My magazine will be about gaming and content will include dark souls, which is an action fantasy
role-playing horror. I will also include other games
Content
My magazine will include a lot of content relating to gaming. I will mostly revolve it around the
game dark souls, as that will be my top news of my magazine. This means I will have to talk about
the content within the game such as the gameplay, plot and background. As well as at I will also
include a hint tips section on telling you how to defeat certain bosses within the game. I will also
talk upcoming games and short summary of the game. I may talk about game consoles with
information about it. I will also include fan art at the end so that.
Audience:
My magazine will first only appeal to the ages 16-34 as my magazine is focusing on dark souls as
the age range is for 16 or over. I don’t think people around 34 or older are interested in gaming as
they don’t have time to play games however there are parents who would buy my magazine to
browse for gifts for their children. The gender for the magazine would stereo typically be for boys
however as gaming progresses more and more females play games. This means I will class my
magazine to be for both genders. My social status will be for the D class as they will have enough
money for my magazine and for the games I will be talking about. They might also have the time to
read it and play the games. My magazine might be for the emulator as the magazine teaches you
how to play the game dark souls which means it will help you be an achiever.
Legal & Ethical Considerations:
Yes I may restrict an audience younger than 16 as my magazine will off games that are ranged 16
or above. I may show off children games that will appeal to children however most games are for
an older audience. My content consists of showing off multiple games and some may offend
certain groups however the magazine itself will defiantly not offend anyone. To not offend anyone I
will try to not to include harsh language and decimation. If a game I want to show off is offensive I
will not include it. I will not include logos and state its mine however the magazine will include
logos and names of the people who created the games. My magazine will be similar to other
products but it won’t be exact.
