Chris Jecks

Chris Jecks focuses on practical, systems-led coverage of mainstream games, turning complex mechanics in sports, racing, and live-service titles into clear, usable guidance for players. He writes in high volume and with a narrow focus on what players can do next in a game, whether that is building a better squad, finding a stronger car, or squeezing more value out of post-game content. His work spans Twinfinite and other gaming outlets, where he has spent more than a decade writing guides, lists, and reviews across major franchises.

Sports games and EA FC 27

Sports games are a core part of Jecks’s beat, with repeated coverage of EA FC 27 and its different modes. At Red Bull he writes pieces such as ranking the best Ultimate Team kits in EA FC 27, spotlighting standout designs and club identities for players building out their squads.

He also breaks down who the fastest players in EA FC 27 are, framing pace as a strategic resource for competitive play rather than just a raw stat. In another recurring angle, he profiles the best free agents in EA FC 27 Career Mode, focusing on contract status, value, and role fit to help players assemble stronger teams without transfer fees. This cluster of work shows a consistent interest in how football games translate real-world and meta-game considerations into decisions about squads, tactics, and long-term saves.

Earlier in his career he is noted for covering FIFA in depth, and that experience carries through into this EA FC 27 coverage with a strong focus on Ultimate Team and Career Mode systems.

Racing and the Forza Horizon series

Jecks treats racing games with the same structured, systems-first approach, particularly the Forza Horizon series. At Red Bull he has written a feature ranking every Forza Horizon game from best to worst, weighing each entry’s map design, festival structure, and car roster to position them within the broader franchise.

His coverage does not stop at ranking; he also writes practical guides that look at what players can do once the main story or primary progression is complete, such as outlining activities and goals after finishing Forza Horizon 6.

Across these pieces, he tends to present racing titles as ongoing sandboxes rather than one-and-done campaigns, highlighting post-game challenges, collection targets, and opportunities to experiment with different builds and events. The Red Bull author bios emphasise his expertise in racing games, and his Forza work reflects that by combining franchise-level perspective with granular suggestions for how players can keep a game feeling fresh.

High-volume guides across genres and platforms

Jecks’s defining trait is volume: his Twinfinite author page credits him with thousands of guides, reflecting a career built around service journalism rather than one-off opinion pieces.

He has been covering the games industry for many years, with work spanning new releases, FIFA, Fortnite, shooters, and other mainstream titles. Professional profiles and outlet bios describe him as having written thousands of guides and reviews, and as an expert on action RPGs, shooters, and racing games.

That breadth is matched by a specific style of coverage: he predominantly produces how-to guides and reviews focused on concrete tasks, such as acquiring items or completing objectives in games like Monster Hunter World, The Sims 4, and Pokémon. His Twinfinite author bio notes a strong interest in Fortnite and online multiplayer experiences, and he has contributed to discussions of titles such as Rainbow Six Extraction in lists of standout online games.

Across these series, Jecks consistently prioritises clarity around game systems, progression paths, and mechanical choices, helping players understand not just what to do, but why a particular build, route, or strategy makes sense.

Lists, rankings, and player-focused framing

Jecks tends to work in list and ranking formats that mirror how players think about options inside a game. His EA FC 27 pieces are all framed around “best” or “fastest” selections, with clear criteria that translate into in-game decisions, such as which kit to choose for an Ultimate Team identity or which free agent to sign for a specific role.

His Forza Horizon feature ranks entries in the series, providing context for players considering which game to revisit or which instalment offers the kind of open world and event structure they prefer. Even when contributing to broader features, such as roundups of the best online multiplayer games of a given year, he writes in concise, player-focused terms that emphasise what a title offers in practice rather than abstract commentary. Author bios stress that he enjoys shooters, Pro Clubs sessions, and a wide range of mainstream and indie titles, and that mix informs a tone that is accessible to everyday players rather than deeply theoretical or insider-focused.

The result is coverage that communications teams can expect to be direct, mechanically grounded, and oriented around how a game feels and functions in the hands of its audience.

Across all of this work, Jecks stands out from a generic gaming reporter by the sheer volume and consistency of his guides, his sustained focus on sports and racing titles, and his habit of framing coverage around specific player decisions rather than broad narrative or industry analysis. His beat is the moment-to-moment experience inside popular games, and his stories concentrate on helping players make those moments more effective, varied, and rewarding.
