Imagine Publishing is a UK-based Magazine Publisher, which publishes a number of videogames, computing, creative and lifestyle magazines. It was created on 14 May 2005, and quickly established itself with a core set of six gaming and creative computing titles. In November 2005 it acquired the only retro games magazine Retro Gamer, after its publisher, Live Publishing went bankrupt. Early 2006, it further acquired the rights to publish a considerable number of titles including games™, Play, PowerStation, X-360, Digital Photographer and iCreate, from the old Paragon Publishing stable of magazines when owner Highbury House Communications went into liquidation, following Future Publishing's withdrawal of its offer to buy the company, due to threats of a monopoly-investigation by the British Competition commission.
