Did You Know Gaming? (abbreviated DYKG[1]) is a video game–focused blog and web series which launched in May 2012. The site features video content focusing on video game related trivia and facts, with occasional journalistic investigations into gaming's lost secrets and forgotten products.[1] Each video is narrated by a number of popular internet personalities and industry professionals including JonTron,[3] Arin Hanson,[4] Smooth McGroove,[5] David Hayter and more.

Since the website's launch, it has been featured on numerous major news and gaming outlets including Huffington Post,[6] MCV,[7] Game Informer,[8] MTV,[9] Nerdist,[10] and the Houston Press.[11]

In 2017, Did You Know Gaming? opened a second channel, called DYKG Clips (formerly Did You Know Gaming? 2).
