MEDIA RELEASE Melbourne, Australia — 20 October 2025  As dedicated Games coverage continues to vanish from Australian media, ScreenHub has strengthened its position as the country’s most consistent and credible source of Games journalism, most recently through its exclusive, in-depth reporting from the 2025 Melbourne International Games Week (MIGW), in conjunction with Creative Victoria. Australia’s Games industry is booming: Australians spent $4.4 billion on games and digital game hardware in 2023, and the local market is projected to reach US$6.8 billion in 2025. Yet while the creative and economic impact of Games continues to surge, the journalism covering it has been shrinking fast. Over the past few years, major Australian Games outlets including Kotaku Australia, Hyper Magazine, Game Informer Australia, Good Game, and ScreenPLAY have all closed. According to the Australian Communications and Media Authority, the number of people working in journalism nationally declined by 19% between 2011 and 2021 — leaving fewer reporters to cover one of Australia’s fastest-growing creative sectors. Against this backdrop, ScreenHub remains one of the few independent publications investing in specialist Games coverage. “While many outlets have scaled back or eliminated their Games reporting, ScreenHub continues to invest in it,” said Paul Dalgarno, Head of Content at Creative Hubs Group, ScreenHub’s parent company. “Australia’s Games industry deserves the same level of cultural coverage and critical engagement as film, television or literature — and we’re proud to provide it.” Paul Dalgarno, Head of Content at Creative Hubs Group ScreenHub’s coverage of MIGW, which concluded on 12th October and is their fourth year working with Creative Victoria to bring this industry and consumer event to life, featured exclusive interviews with leading game developers and industry leaders including Ben Ee from Summerfall Studios  and Johnny Galvatron from games studio Beethoven & Dinosaur , shaping the next generation of Games professionals.  The publication’s focus is timely: Australia’s Games development sector generated $339 million in revenue last financial year, employing 2,465 people, with 93% of revenue earned through exports. Despite this success, the decline in Games media leaves few dedicated outlets connecting local creators to global audiences and discourse. “Games are not just entertainment — they’re visual-first storytelling, design, art and technology combined,” said Creative Hubs Group Chief Commercial Officer, Mimi Curran. “Our role is to ensure that this industry’s creative and cultural achievements are visible, documented and celebrated.” Creative Hubs Group Chief Commercial Officer, Mimi Curran. ScreenHub’s leadership in Games journalism aligns with its wider mission to inform, connect and champion Australia’s screen and creative communities — spanning games, film, television, digital media, and interactive entertainment as well as the arts - visual and performing, literature, fashion, architecture and design through its sister brand, ArtsHub. About ScreenHub ScreenHub is Australia’s leading online resource for the Games and Screen professionals and enthusiasts. Part of the Creative Hubs Group, ScreenHub delivers breaking news, reviews, analysis, and commentary across games, film, television and digital production, supporting professionals, creators, and students across Australia’s creative ecosystem.

We’re excited to mentor the next generation of journalists through this program.” Kerri Glasscock, Executive Director Create NSW said:   “Increasing the opportunities for journalists with expertise in arts and culture is vital to encourage critical public discourse and elevate the achievements of NSW artists and storytellers. “This strategic initiative, delivered by ArtsHub, will nurture emerging arts writers through industry-led professional development opportunities. It’s another way we’re embracing the creative industries and building capacity in the arts sector, a core principle of the Creative Communities policy, to help energise the sector for growth.” Creative Hubs Groups Australian brands ArtsHub and ScreenHub recently combined their editorial teams into a single network content development team under a new Head of Content, headed by Dalgarno.

MELBOURNE (30 May, 2025) — Aussie-based global digital media publisher, Creative Hubs Group, today announces the integration of a new dedicated Games section for video game content within ScreenHub.com.au , which also covers streaming, film, and TV.  The move reinforces the site’s competitive advantage around screen-based entertainment and creates the opportunity to build a larger audience.  Separately, the company has sold its GamesHub.com  brand, which had been a dedicated outlet for video games content. Under its new ownership, it will belong to an organisation that is not a digital media publisher, so Creative Hubs Group expects the site will not compete with ScreenHub.com.au . From today, the award-winning editorial team from GamesHub.com will be part of the ScreenHub.com.au team. “In today’s digital advertising environment, the scale and quality of your content offering and audience are your most important currency,” said Mimi Curran, Creative Hubs Group’s Chief Commercial Officer. “It made more sense to combine all our content related to screen entertainment into a single destination. This is consistent with what we’re seeing elsewhere in the industry.” Creative Hubs Group’s user data reveals shared interests between the audiences who view TV, film, and video games content. Creating a single home for this award-winning content gives audiences a richer experience and gives advertisers a larger audience that is passionate about screen-based entertainment.
