The following Legal Notices contain information relating to access, consultation and use of the site KotaWorld.it and the content published within it.
Nature of the site
KotaWorld is an independent digital editorial project primarily focused on video games, technology, digital entertainment, and related topics.
The site may publish informative, educational, critical, editorial, and entertainment content, including news, reviews, previews, in-depth articles, guides, interviews, special features, and event coverage.
KotaWorld is not a registered journalistic publication or an online daily newspaper. Content is published without a regular or predetermined schedule.
Site management and activities
KotaWorld is independently managed.
The site may use monetisation methods such as advertising, affiliate programmes, sponsorships, collaborations, or other initiatives compatible with its activities.
When required by applicable regulations, the commercial nature of content, links, or communications is made recognisable in accordance with the specified methods.
The existence of commercial, advertising, or professional relationships with third parties does not, by itself, confer any right to determine the editorial line or to obtain a specific evaluation.
Content and editorial independence
News, reviews, previews, in-depth features, guides, interviews and other content may include opinions, interpretations and evaluations formed by the authors and the editorial team.
Editorial reviews are assessed according to criteria deemed appropriate to the nature of the content, the available information, and the context in which the content is produced.
The receipt of products, review copies, keys, early access, printed materials, invitations, or other goods and services does not, by itself, grant the provider any right to obtain a specific rating, a particular score, or editorial coverage.
Accuracy and up-to-date information
KotaWorld manages its content according to editorial criteria deemed appropriate for their nature.
The information published may nevertheless contain errors, omissions, or become subsequently incomplete, outdated, or no longer current.
Information relating, for illustrative purposes, to prices, availability, technical specifications, compatibility, requirements, release dates, services, updates, and commercial terms may be amended by the respective parties concerned at any time after publication.
The user is therefore advised to check with official sources to verify relevant information before making decisions based on the content published on the site.
KotaWorld reserves the right to modify, enhance, correct, update or remove its content at any time, as deemed appropriate.
Reviews, ratings and opinions
Reviews, ratings and evaluations represent editorial judgments relating to the experience, available information and existing conditions at the time of analysis.
Other users’ experience may vary depending on, among other factors, the platform, hardware or software configuration, product version, updates, online services, technical conditions, and personal preferences.
The published reviews do not constitute a guarantee of the individual user experience and should be considered as editorial opinions.
Copyright and original content
Unless otherwise indicated, original content produced by KotaWorld is available under the license Creative Commons Attribution – Non commercial – Share Alike 4.0 International (CC BY-NC-SA 4.0).
The use of original content is permitted exclusively within the limits and conditions specified by the relevant license.
The licence does not authorise commercial use of the original KotaWorld content.
For uses not permitted by the license, prior authorization is required.
Third-party materials
The license applied to KotaWorld's original content does not automatically extend to third-party materials.
They can fall into this category, for illustrative purposes:
- brands and logos;
- screenshot, artwork, key art and promotional images;
- trailer, video and audiovisual materials;
- press kit;
- materials provided by publishers, developers, producers, distributors or agencies;
- content integrated from external platforms and services;

Brands and commercial names
Brands, logos, commercial names, video game titles, product, service, company, publisher, developer and platform names mentioned belong to their respective owners.
Their presence on the site for informational, descriptive, identifying, critical or editorial purposes does not imply, unless otherwise indicated, affiliation, sponsorship, approval or official collaboration.
Human–AI Collaboration
KotaWorld may use AI-based tools within a model of Human–AI Collaboration, intended as a collaboration between human expertise and supportive technological tools.
In this model, artificial intelligence does not replace the author, the editorial team, human judgment, creativity, or editorial independence.
AI tools can be used, depending on the needs, to support activities such as information organisation, preliminary research, linguistic review, summarisation, material comparison, technical analysis, or other editorial support tasks.
The responsibility for editorial choices, content evaluation, interpretation of information, tone, conclusions, and the final decision to publish remains with those who participate in the creation of the content.
Artificial intelligence is therefore used as a support tool and not as a substitute for the author’s intellectual, creative or critical activity.
The use of AI tools does not confer any editorial control over 's editorial line to their respective providers, KotaWorld nor does it automatically determine the content, judgment, or conclusions expressed in the articles.
KotaWorld maintains its own editorial and creative autonomy with respect to both technology tool providers and commercial entities, including publishers, developers, and other external stakeholders.
Technological tools and assisted content
The use of technological tools can evolve over time depending on the editorial, technical, and organisational needs of the site.
The potential use of automated support tools does not, by itself, alter the editorial nature of the content nor transfer responsibility for the published work to such tools.
When specifications for the use of automated systems are subject to particular transparency obligations prescribed by applicable regulations, KotaWorld may adopt the relevant indications requested.
Website and service availability
KotaWorld does not guarantee the continuous and uninterrupted availability of the site, individual pages, contents, or features offered.
Access may be temporarily restricted, suspended, or interrupted due to technical requirements, maintenance, updates, infrastructure issues, third-party provider problems, unforeseeable events, or other necessities.
KotaWorld reserves the right to modify, suspend or discontinue features, sections or services of the site, within the limits permitted by applicable law.
Use of information and limitations of liability
The content of KotaWorld is primarily for informational, educational, critical, editorial and entertainment purposes.
When information can influence economic, technical, or other relevant decisions, the user is invited to verify it through official sources or other competent parties.

Nothing in these Legal Notes is intended to exclude or limit liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.
