Nowadays, "gaming" is attached to everything in the world.
Mice, keyboards, and other gaming devices are good, but there are also things that just glow, such as gaming masks and gaming ear cuffs, and things like shiitake mushrooms and straws that are no longer considered "gaming" at all .
Although many companies offer gaming furniture that combines excellent design with functionality that prevents fatigue even after long hours of gaming, it tends to be very expensive.
"IKEA", a Swedish company that sells furniture with excellent cost performance, has created a breakthrough in the gaming furniture industry.
As previously reported on Saiga NAK, the gaming furniture and accessories developed in collaboration with ASUS' gaming brand "ROG" will be released in Japan in May 2021, and now the release date has been officially confirmed!
IKEA×ROG Gaming Furniture to be Released in Japan, May 2021!
They'll go on sale sequentially starting April 29th!
IKEA x ROG gaming furniture and accessories will be available at IKEA stores nationwide and in the IKEA online store from Thursday (national holiday), April 29, 2021!
I'm glad it's sooner than I thought, as I was initially expecting mid to late May 2021 since that's when they were supposed to go on sale!
Even for large items such as desks and chairs, if you purchase them in the early part of Golden Week, you can assemble and complete the installation during Golden Week.
As previously introduced, IKEA x ROG gaming furniture and accessories include "UPPSPEL", "HUVUDSPELARE", "UTESPELARE", and "UTESPELARE". "MATCHSPEL", "LÅNESPELARE", "GRUPPSPEL (*to be launched in autumn 2021)", and "UPPSPEL/UPSPEL"is a joint development between IKEA and ROG.

Check your size before you buy!
In addition to the items introduced, IKEA x ROG gaming furniture and accessories are all relatively reasonable yet attractive products!
The prices are so affordable that you may be tempted to go all out, but don't forget to check the sizes before you buy!
You may be able to get by with a slightly different size accessory, but you may not be able to install a desk because it doesn't fit!
The official page that has been released this time lists the sizes of each product along with the product lineup, so be sure to measure the size of your home and secure a place where you can place the product!
