Luke Reilly

Luke Reilly is a Senior Editor on the IGN reviews team. A member of IGN's multi-award winning Australian editorial crew, he is based just outside of Sydney where he sees few kangaroos but loads of cows, which traditionally aren't as strong at jumping. A journalist with 23 years of media experience covering games, Luke previously served as the editor of Official PlayStation Magazine – Australia and Australian 360 before joining IGN in 2011, when people sadly began to realise they didn't need to buy information on paper anymore. He was named Best Game Reviewer at the 24th annual Australian IT Journalism Awards. With experience that dates back to the Atari 2600, Luke's eclectic taste in games includes racers, single-player shooters, open-world action, extreme sports, stealth, air combat, music and rhythm, and '90s PC platformers. Around 60% of the games Luke reviews for IGN have cars in them, and an additional handful have skateboards – which are like tiny wooden cars you stand on. When he's not playing Forza Horizon, Grand Theft Auto, Rock Band, or Skate he's also particularly fond of cricket, dad fiction, rock and/or roll, and movies where vigilantes kill lots of bad guys. He spends very little time on social media and won't reach out to you on anything other than email. He has been described as tall.
