ABOUT US

OUR STORY

CanadaGamerHub began in 2017 when three passionate RPG enthusiasts from Vancouver met during a local gaming tournament. Michael Thompson, Sarah Chen, and David Okafor found themselves discussing the lack of dedicated resources for Canadian adventure and role-playing game fans that focused on in-depth analysis rather than surface-level reviews.

What started as weekend meetups in Michael's basement quickly evolved into organized community events at local game shops. By early 2018, our Discord server had grown to over 500 members, and we began producing our first written guides for popular RPG titles. The overwhelmingly positive response from the Canadian gaming community convinced us to establish CanadaGamerHub as a formal organization.

In 2019, we secured our first office space in Vancouver and launched our website to reach gamers across Canada. Our team expanded to include content creators, event coordinators, and technical analysts specializing in different aspects of RPG gaming. By 2020, despite the challenges of the pandemic, we pivoted to virtual events and saw our online community grow exponentially as more Canadians turned to gaming during lockdowns.

Today, CanadaGamerHub stands as Canada's premier resource for adventure and RPG gaming, with community members across all provinces and territories. We organize over 25 annual events, maintain partnerships with major game developers, and provide some of the most comprehensive guides in the gaming industry. What sets us apart is our uniquely Canadian perspective and our commitment to building a welcoming, inclusive gaming community that celebrates the depth and richness of adventure gaming.

Hear from our community members

"CanadaGamerHub completely transformed my Elden Ring experience. Their detailed explanation of stat scaling and weapon synergies helped me create a character that made even the toughest bosses manageable. Beyond the guides, I've met an amazing group of fellow RPG enthusiasts at their Toronto events who have become real-life friends."

"As a parent who enjoys gaming but has limited time, the efficiency guides on CanadaGamerHub have been invaluable. Their Horizon Forbidden West progression path helped me experience all the best content without wasting time on grinding. The community is incredibly welcoming to casual players like me, and the guides are written in a way that's accessible without talking down to you."

Their Dark Souls parry timing session translated into practical skills that completely changed my approach to action RPGs. The technical depth of their guides combined with hands-on events creates a learning experience you can't find anywhere else."
