VG247 was visited by more than 2 million unique users last month, nearly double the audience recorded in September 2012.

VG247.com broke its previous monthly traffic record in September, recording visits from 2,078,534 unique users and serving 5,405,453 page views.

The metrics are internal, taken from Google Analytics.

The VG247 audience has grown almost 100% from the 1.1 million unique users and 3 million page views announced in September 2012.

Said editor Patrick Garratt: “Passing 2 million monthly unique users is a major milestone for our business."

He added: "Reaching these levels of popularity adds a strong positive note to our impending relaunch. The new site, coupled with the release of PlayStation 4 and Xbox One this winter, give us every reason to look forward to continued success in 2014.”
