We are a team of passionate Australian gamers, writers, and esports enthusiasts dedicated to delivering honest game coverage and building a thriving competitive community.
BattlePhantom was founded in 2020 by a group of friends who met at a local LAN event in Surry Hills, Sydney. Frustrated by the lack of Australian-focused gaming coverage, they set out to create a platform that spoke directly to the ANZ gaming community.
What started as a small blog has grown into one of Australia's most trusted sources for game reviews, esports tournament coverage, and gaming community news — reaching over 120,000 readers every month.
We are headquartered at Level 5, 100 Harris Street, Pyrmont NSW 2009, with contributors across Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth, and Adelaide.
We never accept payment for positive coverage. Every score reflects our genuine experience with the game, period.
Our readers are Australian gamers. We tailor our content to local server performance, regional pricing, and ANZ esports events.
We publish reviews and tournament results as quickly as possible so you're always up to date with the latest in gaming.
We celebrate all types of gamers — casual, competitive, or somewhere in between. Every player has a place in our community.
Passionate gamers and professional writers based across Australia.
