Cassian Vale

Cassian Vale is MCM's video games editor. He writes about games as authored works — the design choices, the worlds, and the stories only this medium can tell — with the same scrutiny the magazine brings to film and art. A lapsed literature student who fell for games through the immersive sims and narrative adventures of the 2000s, he is drawn to creators who treat play as a language of its own. Based in Montréal, Canada.
