The cover letter is also your opportunity to tell us about you and what you're passionate about. Whether that's baking cakes, ranking up in your favourite games or raising an army of puppies, we want to know! Tell us about the games you play, why you love those games, and some of the most memorable experiences you have ever had in gaming. There is no limit on Cover Letter length.
