We’re declaring the gift-hunting season officially open. You may have managed to sort out some of your shopping on Black Friday, but I’m sure many of you are still looking for inspiration. Wondering what to get a gamer? What sort of gaming gift would be suitable? We’ve put together a list of 9 suggestions for you, curated to include products across a range of price points. Anyway, have a look for yourselves.
A game is the first thing that springs to mind when we think of a present for a gamer. However, the sheer number of options can be overwhelming, especially if you don’t keep up with the market and don’t know much about different types of games. The solution is to buy a title that practically everyone would want to play. The massive hits of recent weeks spring to mind, such as Assassin’s Creed Valhalla from Ubisoft, or Cyberpunk 2077 from Poland’s best-known studio, CD Projekt. This year’s edition of FIFA is also a good choice, as it’s a staple under the Christmas tree every year. Before buying, it’s just worth checking whether the recipient already owns the game in question.
Is gaming furniture a good idea for a Christmas present? Of course it is! Every year, around the turn of November and December, we receive hundreds or even thousands of enquiries on this topic. Lots of kids type in gaming chair in their letter to Father Christmas, as they’re into gaming and want to build their own gaming rig. It’s hardly surprising – a gaming chair is a substantial gift that will last for a long time, whilst being both practical and exciting for the recipient. And what’s more… it looks quite impressive under the Christmas tree! Our range includes over a dozen different models of gaming chairs, so it’s easy to find something for every gaming fan. The glowing chairs – those fitted with RGB LED strips, such as the Huzaro 4.2 RGB – are particularly popular.
Social media is a world of new stars. Influencers and streamers have become the idols of young people. These days, children dream just as often of becoming a professional YouTuber as they do of becoming a professional footballer. The popularity of Christmas presents such as good-quality microphones and cameras is therefore no coincidence. After all, to gain popularity, you need to start recording, and nobody wants to do that in poor quality. There’s a huge choice on the market, and you can easily find equipment for both beginners and more advanced video enthusiasts.
Gaming desks It’s an incredibly trendy topic in the world of computer gaming. The trend originated in the West and has now taken Poland by storm too. Huzaro desks are practical pieces of furniture that we’ve designed especially for gaming enthusiasts. We love gaming ourselves, which is why we fully understand the needs and preferences of computer gamers. Headphone and drink holders, a monitor stand, an easy-to-maintain carbon-style finish – there are many special features we’ve incorporated into our desks, and the list goes on and on. A desk is one of the most important pieces of furniture in a room, as we spend many hours at it – not only gaming, but also studying or working. Especially during the pandemic and with remote working and learning, a good desk is invaluable. That’s why Huzaro furniture, as well as being equipped with gadgets for gamers, also has another key feature – it’s extremely durable and practical. A gaming desk combines this practical element with the so-called ‘wow factor’, because we mustn’t forget that design and appearance are also important, especially when it comes to gifts.
Computer games entered the world of fashion and pop culture many years ago. Recently, we’ve even seen a trend where the games themselves are in fashion and people are proud to show off their passion for gaming. No one sees a computer gamer as a scruffy introvert any more! These days, gaming is cool, and people are proud of their interests. So you can easily find T-shirts, sweatshirts and socks featuring gaming motifs in shops. The choice is vast, and these designs can be found in both large chain stores and smaller retailers. The range includes something for fans of the cult classic Mario as well as newer games such as The Witcher, Fortnite or CS:GO. This gift is a great alternative to typical gaming gear and is ideal when you’re not entirely sure what kit the recipient owns. Another advantage is often the price, which is significantly lower than the other items on our list.
A brilliant gift idea, especially for people who spend a lot of time in front of the telly. Whether it’s watching TV series, playing on a games console or having film marathons – you can do all of these things in greater comfort. Gaming beanbag It’s a must-have in any fan’s room who enjoys the activities mentioned. Filled with flexible granules, the pouffe moulds itself to the shape of your body, so once you sit down, you won’t want to get up. The problem with Christmas presents is that it’s hard to come up with something original. A gamer’s pouffe solves this problem. An original, creative present that looks great and is also very practical, including when it comes to looking after it. So, just buy it and tuck it under the Christmas tree!
Gaming accessories such as mice, gaming mouse mats and gaming keyboards are a good choice, especially if you can ask the recipient exactly which product they would find useful. Gamers often have individual preferences when it comes to this sort of kit, so it’s worth finding out what they are before you buy. When choosing a mouse mat, it’s worth paying attention to its size. If the desk is large enough, the largest possible mouse mat will be ideal, allowing for comfortable work or gaming regardless of preferences such as desk layout or mouse sensitivity. An added bonus could be RGB lighting fitted around the edge of the mouse mat. This will ensure the gift is not only practical and useful, but also impressive. The colourful lighting will create a unique atmosphere and enhance the gaming setup.
Admittedly, professional drones for filming come with certain restrictions, such as the need for appropriate permits, training and … the price, but you can – and indeed should – start enjoying flying with much smaller, training models. You can buy one of these for as little as 100–200 zł, and the amount of fun they provide is comparable to that of professional equipment. A major advantage of such a drone’s small size is the ability to fly it indoors. So you can practise from the comfort of your sofa. At a time when opportunities to leave the house are limited, a toy like this is a great way to add some variety to your home entertainment. Small training drones are offered by many manufacturers, so there’s a huge choice on the market. Among them, the most frequently recommended models are those from Hubsan and Syma.
