A significant portion of British gamers, including 29-year-old Alexander Cobb, prioritize 'gamecations' when planning their holidays. Many adults spend nearly half of their annual leave indulging in gaming. A recent study found that 78% of participants prefer 'gamecations' over conventional beach or spa trips. Cobb, who has been gaming since childhood, often takes his consoles on trips, balancing gaming with traditional breaks. Rituals include snacks and setting the mood for immersive gaming experiences during his holidays.
I choose gaming over a traditional holiday if there's a big release or I just want a quiet break. I'd say around 40% of my annual leave is used for gaming-themed time off - some years more.
A study conducted by Logitech G exposed that 78 per cent of participants would choose 'gamecations' over beach or spa breaks.
When I went to Malta last year, I brought the Switch for the evenings. I even lugged my PS5 to a cottage in Cornwall - it was a bit of a mission but worth it.
My Lake District trip was a mix of hiking and gaming. After a long walk, I'd settle in with the Switch and play Fire Emblem or Mario Kart.
