In addition to the re-branding, the company's focus shifted to video game and technology journalism.

In mid-2015 the company changed its logo from the white triangle to the walking man icon, which tied in more with the company's name.
The company now has a total of three employees: two writers and one editor. HoboHut Network has written reviews on products by notable companies such as Logitech, HTC, LG, Asus Computers, Rockstar Games, Telltale Games and many other companies.
In Q2 of 2015, HoboHut Network began to post short news posts on their Facebook page about video game and technology news.
