Raze was a monthly magazine published in the United Kingdom by Newsfield Publications between 1990 and 1991. The successor to The Games Machine, Raze was positioned as Newsfield's multi-format gaming magazine for 16-bit home computers and game consoles. It gradually became less interested in the computer side, becoming a console-only publication for its final two issues.

Newsfield went bust in the autumn of 1991, with Raze ceasing publication around the same time. Newsfield's assets were rolled into Europress Impact, who instead launched Newsfield's planned Sega Force and N-Force in late 1991 to deal with Sega and Nintendo console gaming, respectively.
