About Us – PixelCrafta | Australia's Gaming Hub

Our Story

Born from a Passion for Gaming

PixelCrafta was founded in Sydney in 2019 by a group of passionate Australian gamers who were frustrated with the lack of locally-focused, genuinely independent game coverage. We believed Australian players deserved reviews that understood their context — server latency, local release dates, and the unique Australian gaming community.

What started as a small blog has grown into one of Australia's most-read gaming platforms, with over 85,000 monthly readers across every state and territory. Our editorial team spans Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, and Adelaide, giving us a truly national perspective.

We cover everything from blockbuster AAA releases to indie gems, and our esports coverage spans the entire Australian competitive scene — from grassroots LAN events to national championships.
