Born in Sydney, built for Australian gamers. We've been covering the games and tournaments that matter since 2018.
PhantomGrid was founded in 2018 by a group of passionate Australian gamers who felt that local gaming journalism deserved better. Too often, Australian players were reading reviews written for overseas audiences, with no consideration for local server availability, community size, or the unique gaming culture of the region.
We set out to change that. Based in Sydney's tech hub at 1 Darling Island Road, Pyrmont NSW 2009, our team of dedicated journalists, critics, and esports analysts produces content specifically for the Australian gaming community.
Today, PhantomGrid reaches over 85,000 monthly readers and has become the go-to source for game reviews, esports tournament coverage, and gaming news across Australia and New Zealand. Our reviews are thorough, honest, and always written with the Australian player in mind.
