About Us - Melbourne Game Labs

From Indie Roots to Global Releases

Humble Beginnings in Melbourne, 2014

Melbourne Game Labs launched as a small indie studio nestled in the heart of Melbourne’s creative district. Driven by passion for immersive storytelling and innovative gameplay, our founders set out to redefine player experiences.

Milestones: Steam, Consoles & VR Lab

Our first Steam release in 2016 laid the foundation for expansion. By 2018, we mastered console porting and opened a cutting-edge VR & AR lab, pioneering new methods of interactive entertainment.

Our Mission & Vision
