Data sources and attribution

Game data: IGDB

Game details on Respawndex, including names, release dates, platforms, genres, developers, publishers, series, game modes, age ratings, cover art and screenshots, come from IGDB.com through its API. Every page that uses this data links back to IGDB. We store a copy of the data and refresh it on a schedule, so a very recent change may take a short while to appear.

Hand-written facts

Facts on our GTA 6 and Pokemon pages, such as release dates, unlock times, editions and prices, are checked against official announcements and store listings, then against major gaming outlets. Each page lists its sources at the bottom.

Game descriptions

The short description on each game page is written with the help of an AI model, using only that game's IGDB data as input, and never copying IGDB's own summary text. Descriptions are checked automatically for length and style before they are published.

Images

Cover art and screenshots come from IGDB and belong to their respective owners. They are converted to a lighter format so pages load quickly. Rights holders can reach us through the takedown page.
