From fresh titles to franchise favourites, there’s a lot to look forward to this year when it comes to gaming. Across both PC and console gaming, the new-release video games 2024 are as action-packed and immersive as ever. Whether you’re a passionate PC gamer or swear by your Nintendo Switch, PlayStation or Xbox, it’s the perfect time to upgrade your gaming set-up.
“Bring games to life with an ultra-high-definition PC monitor, or take advantage of the intense speeds and extra graphics power on the latest PlayStation 5 or Xbox Series X|S console,” says David Linehan, The Good Guys Buyer – Tech Accessories.
“You can even immerse yourself in the action with VR accessories!”
Read on for the best gadgets to level up your gaming set-up. Plus, award-winning technology writer Alice Clarke reveals her pick of the most exciting video games for 2024! Let’s get gaming!
Playing games with the best graphics and textures only adds to the immersion and gives you an advantage over your competitors. So, you’ll want to make sure you have the best kit for what you want to play.
When it comes to playing the latest games on a gaming PC, you need a minimum of a decent graphics card, a fast processor, at least 16GB of RAM, and a monitor with the best refresh rate your budget will stretch to. A good way to work out exactly what you need is to look at the recommended specs for your favourite games and then get a PC that matches or exceeds them.

Asus TUF A15 15.6" Ryzen 5 16GB 512GB RTX2050 4GB Gaming Laptop
“Picking the right game console for you rests on two big questions: What do you want to play? And how do you want to play?” says award-winning technology writer Alice Clarke. “If you love a big, exclusive game such as Spiderman for PlayStation, Forza Motorsport for Xbox, or Mario Kart on Nintendo, then that answers your question,” says Alice. “Other than that, consider portability and whether there’s a subscription service that particularly suits your needs.”
From there, you can also look at consoles with bundled games or extra controllers to get an even better deal.

Xbox Series X 1TB

For optimising your gaming experience, accessories are key. “That could be something as big as PlayStation VR2 to play the latest, most immersive virtual reality games, or just an extra controller for your player two,” says David Linehan. “For PC, that could be a more specialised VR headset, or a mechanical keyboard to get an advantage.”
