Our gift guide for gamers in 2024

The festive season is upon us, and you're still looking for the perfect gift for a gamer in your life? Whether it's a die-hard e-sports fan, an avid single-player or someone who just wants to immerse themselves in the world of video games from time to time while sitting comfortably, you'll find just the thing in our gift guide! We've put together some ideas for you so that you can give your favourite gamer an unforgettable Christmas. Let us inspire you and find the perfect gift!

Chaos under the desk?

Has your loved one already found the perfect gaming setup for themselves, but when you look under their desk, the scales fall from their eyes?
Choosing the components for a gaming PC and the right peripherals takes a lot of time and, above all, money. So it's no wonder that something as simple as cable management is quickly overlooked. Fortunately, this problem is quickly solved. You can find inexpensive cable management kits on the relevant mail order companies, which can be used to get the problem under control easily and cost-effectively.

But be careful: cable management is not everyone's favourite pastime. You can of course go one better: give the gift of extra time together and offer to help untangle the cables. This will guarantee that you really make your favourite gamer happy.

How about a new keyboard?

The most popular gaming keyboard comes from Logitech and is now 8 years old. If the person you want to give the gift to is also one of the many buyers of this or similar keyboards, you can certainly help them out with an upgrade! There are now many models that are cheaper, offer better functions and in many cases are even mechanical. The older keyboards use so-called ‘rubber dome switches’. These are small rubber caps under the switches that close the contact. This leads to a spongy typing feel, which also has a negative effect on gaming performance. Mechanical keyboards are much better in this respect. If you want to go the extra mile, you can also immerse yourself in the world of ‘custom keyboards’. Here, various housings, keycaps and switches can be customized.

The spectrum ranges from large providers with a clear range to niche manufacturers with sometimes exorbitant prices. So there really is something for everyone.

However, caution is also advised: If your loved one is gaming within earshot of your bedroom, we recommend a different gift: in addition to their tactile feel, mechanical keyboards are also known for their high volume!

Want a really good gaming chair?

From home office to gaming session: Does your loved one spend most of their time sitting in front of the computer? Then you should definitely take a look at the chair they use! Far too many people sit on gaming chairs that aren't really ergonomic. Does it look like a rally chair? Then it's one of the usual suspects: OEM chairs with cheap workmanship. Especially if the artificial leather on the chair is already peeling off, it's high time for an upgrade: at BACKFORCE, you'll find a selection of high-quality gaming chairs that we manufacture ourselves in Germany. As an Interstuhl brand, we can draw on over 60 years of experience in the construction of office chairs. Expertise that also finds its way into our BACKFORCE chairs. All our chairs are ergonomic and made from high-quality materials. We also offer a 10-year guarantee.

Accessories for the BACKFORCE chair

Does the person you want to give a gift to already have a BACKFORCE chair? All the better! We also have a range of accessories and merchandise that you can give as a gift to your favourite gamer.

Customized graphics for the Gamer Pulse LED

This idea is free for you (except for the materials)! Almost all of our chairs come with an illuminated brooch. You can use our template to create a customized design for it and give it to your loved one as a gift. Whether it's a favourite character, your own logo or a sweet message. There are no limits to your creativity.

If the person receiving the gift only has a BACKFORCE V without a Gamer Pulse LED, you can buy these in our accessories shop.

Custom patches

Would you like to give your loved one a personalized gift, but don't feel like tinkering? We make it easy for you with our custom patches! Simply choose a suitable colour for the background, border and font colour and add your individual text. There are (almost) no limits to your creativity here either. For example, you can use the nickname or a lovely message.

Cleaning set

Appropriate care is crucial for the durability of artificial leather. To make it easier for you to choose a care product, we have added our cleaning set to our range, which is perfectly matched to all the covers we offer with our gaming chairs.

You can also find it here in our accessories section.

Armrest upgrades

If your favourite gamer ‘only’ owns a BACKFORCE V or BACKFORCE ONE, you can easily give away a little comfort with our upgrade kits. You can choose whether you want to upgrade the armrests with our posters or upgrade directly to the 5D version, which already includes the additional upholstery. The choice is yours!

Neck cushion

The neck cushion in our shop is not absolutely necessary to sit ergonomically and comfortably. But it's great for taking a breather between matches (or meetings)! We also have a special gift idea for fans of the streamer ‘Gnu’: a Gnu cushion. Both cushions can also be attached to other chairs without any problems.

Merch

Is the person you want to make happy a BACKFORCE fan through and through? Then give them one of our merch items as a gift. The selection ranges from T-shirts to hoodies and caps with various motifs. Sustainability and quality are also important to us when it comes to our merchandise. The printed textiles are made from organic cotton.
