9 – Gamer Gift Cards
Sometimes, when sitting at wits ends trying to find the right gift, a simple card is the perfect way to go. With options ranging from the PSN card for DLC, the PS+ for monthly savings, Xbox Live Gold, Nintendo eShop and even Steam, these will give you the varied options needed to cover any and all gamers, provided you know their favorite system. You might just see a piece of cardboard with a silver wax strip on the back, but to a gamer it can mean new characters, levels, and content they may have been itching to pick up.
10 – Gaming Mouse
By this point in the year, your favorite PC gamer has probably worn down their computer mouse to the absolute gears: it eats batteries, its non-responsive, it has simply bitten the dust. While it used to be a price point reserved for professional gamers, many models of gaming mouse have hit a very reasonable price, making this a viable stocking stuffer. If you just picked up Assassins Creed Origins, Destiny 2, or Player Unknowns Battlegrounds as a gift on PC, a brand new mouse might just be the perfect accent to a stellar new adventure.
11 – USB Specialty Beverage Cooler/Warmer
While it may be a little unconventional and less often marketed, having a device that plugs into your computer and either cools or warms your drink is just a great thing to have. We spend countless hours in front of monitors at all hours of the day, so wouldn’t it be nice if our pop didn’t turn lukewarm and our coffee didn’t freeze? This isn’t even just for PC gamers as every console has an external USB port so they can enjoy their drink to their heart’s content.
12 – Gamer Fuel
Often overlooked is the fuel a gamer needs to keep going for those marathon sessions they are prepping for. Turkey makes you sleepy, and all the other Christmas goodies are going to make them bloated and greasy. A couple light snacks and an energy drink for late night gaming is a cheap and simple way to fill the stocking and still be a crowd pleaser around the holiday season as the gamer in your house can stay up to the wee hours enjoying all the other goodies they got to unwrap.
We hope this guide gave you a few ideas for the holiday season. Are there any suggestions for stocking stuffers that we may have missed? Let us know on Facebook, Twitter, and the Comments section below!
