Fortress Melbourne & Gaming Communities

Video Games

Cameron, Elliot & Edie are joined by Jon Satterly from Fortress Melbourne to chat about the new space and gaming community.

Ahead of its 2020 opening we chat about what exactly is Melbourne Fortress with Co-Founder and CEO Jon Satterly. This soon to be mega complex for all thing gaming in the Melbourne CBD is all about building your community and giving you a home away from home where you can relax and game with your friends. We look at what it hopes to achieve, how it came about and who are the mysterious mascots that Jon created to represent this hub of digital and table top gaming.
