Random: IKEA's Gaming Range Has The Essentials, Like A Mug Holder And Neck Pillow - Nintendo Life

IKEA is another joining in, creating a range of gaming furniture that seems to be focused on competitive PC-centric gaming, and of course streamers.

As suggested above it's targeting a very specific setup - many of us may slump in a cosy chair or sofa to play games on the TV, whereas a lot of the range is focused on competitive angles or streaming.

That's fair enough, though some of our team have seen the concept images and gone from 'it's a bit like a bathroom' to 'it was clearly designed by Batman'.

In total, the new gaming range includes more than 30 products, covering both furniture – gaming desks and chairs, a drawer unit – and accessories – a mug holder, a mouse bungee, a neck pillow, a ring light and many more.

The new range offers gaming desks and chairs of different price range to meet the needs of different target groups.

There's also a neck pillow, which we understand could be very useful for people with injuries or comfort issues, but nonetheless seems like an odd inclusion in this range!

As you can guess, we're not convinced by IKEA's gaming range, but if it is for you then it'll definitely be worth a look when it rolls out in October.

I already have gamer furniture from IKEA.

@Bunkerneath Just like "nerd'".

Never been so enlightened than when I watched Gamers Nexus's video on buying an office chair over a gaming chair.

My old man, as he's nearing retirement, is often sitting for long hours in front of his computer and wanted to buy a gaming chair from a local store that had a deal on them, I told him "ask if you can try it out first before you fork any money for one", and it's good that he was able to, cause he said it was a horrible experience sitting in it.

Anything coming out of Ikea with the word "gaming" attached to it, I'd be wary of instantly.

With that being said, heck, a shelf or a desk, whether it's from Ikea or anyone else is just furniture, it's not like that can harm you?

Attaching the word "gaming" to it is just another way to milk more money out of naive customers?

I don't need racing stripes on a chair for gaming?

Let's just make all our normal stuff black and jam it together with a gaming chair.

But my daughter's gaming PC is set on an Ikea desk (with hidden cable channels to reduce clutter)

And she has an Ikea office chair
