About RapidCores

The story behind Australia's favourite gaming review platform.

Who We Are

RapidCores was founded in Sydney in 2019 by a group of passionate gamers who felt the Australian gaming community deserved a dedicated, locally-focused source for honest game reviews and esports coverage.

We are a team of 12 writers, analysts, and video producers spread across Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane, and Perth. Every review we publish is written by someone who has spent meaningful time with the game — no rushed previews, no paid placements.

Our mission is simple: give Australian gamers the information they need to make great choices about the games they play and the tournaments they follow.

Our Community

Beyond reviews, RapidCores is a community hub. We partner with tournament organisers across Australia to provide coverage, media support, and player spotlights for events ranging from grassroots LAN parties to national championships.

We believe esports in Australia is on the cusp of something extraordinary, and we are proud to be part of that growth. Whether you are a casual player curious about the next big release or a competitive team looking for exposure, RapidCores is your home.
