What END OF LEVEL MEDIA LIMITED does

End of Level Media Limited is a privately-held UK-domiciled digital media company operating the Big Boss Battle (B3) website (bigbossbattle.com), founded in 2016. The site publishes gaming news, reviews, features and guides organized by both format (News, Reviews, Features, Guides) and platform (PC, PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch, Tabletop, Tech and Gadgets), serving enthusiast audiences across video games, board/tabletop games and gaming-adjacent consumer electronics. Editorial production is carried out by a distributed roster of named contributors (e.g., Reuben Howe, Jupiter Hadley, Liam Freeman, James Wilson, Matthew Smail) rather than a full-time newsroom, and content is distributed freely without paywalls.

The company's product portfolio comprises the core B3 content site and an integrated B3 Shop providing browse, checkout, basket and account functionality for games and merchandise. Underlying technology is a standard content-managed publishing stack with social sharing integrations into Facebook, Twitter/X, Reddit, Pinterest and WhatsApp; the source material discloses no proprietary APIs, SDKs, mobile apps, or AI capabilities.

Monetization is driven primarily by affiliate-link partnerships embedded in product reviews and shopping content (e.g., Amazon, TOZO discount codes, publisher-linked board games), with secondary direct-to-consumer revenue from the B3 Shop. The company has no disclosed external funding, parent, subsidiaries, M&A activity, named advertisers, enterprise customers or executive team beyond its copyright notice, indicating a founder/owner-operated SMB media operation with global reach but no documented commercial scale beyond affiliate and shop revenue.
