What is the timeframe in the contract? The quotes only show a tiny excerpt of the whole contract.

I don't see anything unreasonable about this if the terms expire when the game releases or the review embargo lifts. Reviewers can't review pre-release copies of games until the embargo lifts.

If the non disparagement clause remains in effect after release, that's very bad. Impossible to tell which it is from the tiny excerpt provided.
