In a bad-vibes moment, they're denying a huge outlet like IGN a review code. No matter what I think of IGN in particular (nothing good tbh), that's not something I can find a real explanation for other than "We made DC's Gollum and want to avoid bad press as long as we can".

You let companies review your game when you want fans outside your bubble to hear how good your game is. You don't let companies review your game when you don't want fans inside your bubble to fund out how bad your game is.
