Wrap up your gamer’s holiday list with these epic gifts

If you have a gamer on your list this year — and who doesn’t — we feel your frustration. Finding the right gift for this fickle bunch can be as hard as a final boss battle, especially if you’re set on giving them something that you can wrap and put under the tree instead of a digital download.

From a next-gen VR headset and PC gaming rig to classic Mario games for the whole family, we've compiled a handful of the top gaming gifts to hit Walmart this year. Prepare to score big gifting points. 

A drool-worthy gift for Marvel fans

This new game takes all the cool things from the previous Spider-Man games and multiplies them by 10. From new combat and swinging mechanics to the emotional story and eye-melting graphics, gamers can play as both Peter Parker and Miles Morales, which is pretty sweet. 

Upgrade their VR setup 

This mixed-reality headset is loaded with a 4K+ Infinite Display and delivers an impressive bump in resolution from the Quest 2. The ease of use of this gadget makes it a great gift for both hardcore players and first-timers — and Asgard’s Wrath 2 is included as a cherry on top.

A starter gaming set for lil’ noobs

If you have a newbie gamer on your list, this bundle lets them start playing out of the box. It includes a full Nintendo Switch system, the beginner-friendly Mario Kart 8 Deluxe game, and a three-month Nintendo Switch Online membership. It’s also portable. Car rides have never been quieter. 

An OG the whole family can geek out about

Gather around the Nintendo Switch for some good, clean fun with the largest cast of characters in a side-scrolling Mario game ever. Whether you play solo or with up to three other players, this classic is loaded with cute power-ups and a bonus set of holofoil trading cards.

The rig on every master gamer’s list

This premium gaming rig is beastly. It’s loaded with the AMD Ryzen 9-7845HX processor plus 16GB of DDR5 RAM, which will crush load times so they won't ever have to worry about lag again. It also has NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4060 graphics to run any AAA game they throw at it.

For the fussy gamer who has it all

When they game in this comfy chair surrounded by immersive sound pumping out of the ear-level Bluetooth speakers, they’ll be sucked in like never before. Practical perks include arm rests and a foot rest, which make those long play sessions way more comfortable. 

Find something for gamers of all skill and pickiness levels at Walmart and wrap it up this holiday.
