Is this meant to be a competitor to the just released OpenAI Universe ? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13103742

No, not directly. DeepMind Lab is a 3D environment that can be highly customized -- looks like its built on an old Quake engine. Their pitch seems to include a lot of real world task simulation. OpenAI Universe is made to sandbox and emulate existing PC software being used with mouse and keybaord input.

At least, that's my non-expert understanding.

So if I want to make an AI for a game, I should use OpenAI?
