Buying gifts for your gaming friends can often be difficult, especially if you aren’t too knowledgeable about the games that are out there. Additionally, if they are really serious about gaming, they will probably have all of the technology that they need – or will have their eye on something specific or expensive. Here are a couple of ideas for gifts you could get your gamer friends, which are either related or unrelated to gaming as a hobby.


A Funny Facemask That’ll Make Them Laugh
Something that has become a part of all of our lives this year is facemasks. These are taken pretty much everywhere you go and now it is the law to wear them in a lot of places, such as shops or any indoor areas. Why not mix this up a bit and get your gamer friend a facemask that they can laugh at? Not only will it be funny to watch them open the present, but it will provide those on the street or in the shops a bit of a giggle if they see them walking around and wearing it. Why not get them this hilarious ‘Ok boomer’ facemask from funatic.com, which is adjustable to fit most adults? If your friend is familiar with technology and the kind of jokes that are being circulated around social media, this is one they’ll be familiar with!


A Mug With Silly Photos Of Them On
A great gift to get someone is a mug with photos on it. This could be made a serious present if you decide to put sentimental images on there, but equally, it could be made into a funny present if you put silly photos on. Having a go-to mug to hand is essential for a lot of gamers – that morning coffee or tea is often what fuels them to beat their high scores. This will be even better if the mug is personalized – combine a mixture of pictures that reflect their love for gaming as well as some that show them doing other activities away from the screen.


A Comfy Dressing Gown
For a lot of gamers, something that they value massively outside of gaming is comfort and being completely snug when gaming. What better way to do this than to game while wearing a fluffy dressing gown? This is something that can be used both while gaming and while chilling around the house – particularly in winter, dressing gowns are a complete lifesaver. You could even get a dressing gown that is specifically designed for gamers – such as one with a logo or picture on the back. This will ensure that no other family members get mixed up with who’s dressing gown is who’s.

Buying birthday presents is a lot more fun when you can have a laugh at the same time, so don’t hold back from being as ridiculous and comical as you can. They don’t all have to be to do with gaming directly – remember, this isn’t their entire life even if it may sometimes seem that way!
