History
The website was launched by Kévin Kuipers and Clément Apap in December 2000 while French retailer LDLC acquired a 35% stake.[3][4] It was acquired by CNET Networks in January 2007.[5] Founders Apap and Kuipers stopped being involved with the website and later launched SensCritique.[6] In January 2014, a management buyout was conducted by CNET France parent CBS Interactive France, creating new company CUP Interactive.[7] CUP Interactive, later Neweb, was acquired by TF1 Group in October 2015.[8] In January 2022, Les Numériques and Gamekult announced to increase their editorial collaboration.[9] On June 29, 2022, TF1 announced it had signed an agreement with the Reworld Media group to sell its digital media division Unify (formerly Neweb), which includes Gamekult.[10]
