We Started Because We Were Annoyed

RocketClash launched in 2019 out of a share house in Fitzroy, Melbourne. Four friends, one TV, and a shared frustration: every major gaming outlet was either American, bought by publishers, or both. ANZ tournaments were invisible. Review scores were negotiated. Nobody was playing the games properly.

So we built the thing we wanted to read. Seven years later, it's still the same deal — we play the games, we attend the events, we write what we actually think, and we answer to readers, not advertisers.

• Every review requires a minimum 20 hours of play time
• Scores are never influenced by advertising relationships
• Tournament coverage prioritises Australian and ANZ events
• Editorial independence is protected by our founding charter
• All reviewers disclose any conflicts of interest
