Our story

Console gaming,
written from down under.

AeroValen started as a group chat between mates in Melbourne and Perth who were tired of reading coverage that treated Australia as an afterthought. Different prices, different release hours, different value calls — so we built the publication we wished existed.

Why we exist

Local context, not recycled hype

Most of the console coverage Australians read is written for northern-hemisphere audiences. Launch times land at 2am, prices are quoted in the wrong currency, and "value" ignores what we actually pay at the till.

We fix that. Every review, guide and comparison is grounded in Australian reality — recommended local pricing, sensible release-timing notes, and honest advice about when to buy now and when to wait for a sale.

What guides us

Three principles

Independence

Our verdicts aren't for sale. Editorial and commercial stay separated, and any partnership is disclosed on the page.

Real hours

We don't score from trailers. Every rating comes from genuine time on real console hardware.

Clarity

No jargon walls. If a spec matters, we explain why it matters to how you actually play.
