Several gamers today have noticed that Twitch has added new — and most importantly, local — Australian servers to their library.

While Twitch hasn’t confirmed the servers yet, they’ve been noticed by several professional gamers and our very own Luke Lawrie.

Something i noticed while streaming yesterday is an Australian server has popped up for Twitch. Not seen it before.

Steve is the founder of Stevivor, which itself is a combination of ‘Steve’ and ‘Survivor’ -- that made more sense back in 2001 when Steve first arrived in the country and Jeff Probst was up in Queensland. The site started as Steve’s travel blog before transitioning over into video games.

Aside from video games, Steve has interests in hockey and Star Trek, playing the former and helping to cover video games about the latter on TrekMovie.com. By day, Steve works as the communications manager of the peak body representing Victorians as they age.

Steve has recently gathered a career's worth of writing on swright.au, his personal portfolio.
