Of course, if any magazine would wish to do such a thing and have reason to. Given Xonotic's quality, it might not be excluded however. The way I found Nexuiz years ago was from a newspaper article, which is quite surprising if I think about it now.
In Germany the popular World of Padman had made it to one or two Game Magazines and in a German Gaming-TV Channel.
And WoP is not 100% GPL, because the Graphics are mostly Copyrighted by the Comics Artist Ente.
He gave Interviews, shows in a sample the different Game modes and so on.
The Xonotic Youtube Channel already has some very good small videos so it should be possible to make contact to Game Magazines.
But if we choose to try it, it would be best to coordinate the activies to make it in more medias in the same time frame.
Always keep the fun in your life.
