Top 20 Video Game Room Ideas

1. John’s 62-Nano Leaf Panel Setup

  • Philips Hue Light Strip – 2m (×3)
  • Philips Hue Go Portable Light (×4)

We went all-out with our first here, with John’s 62-Nano leaf panel setup. Unlike most of your favorite Twitch streamers that use only a dozen or so of these nano leaves, this guy went over the top, and wouldn’t probably use the room’s lighting– ever, living entire by the glow of his LED lights.

How it can be better:

The number of action figures in this room has taken a lot of space and is better off tucked in someplace else to take real advantage of those screen setups. Or simply making a separate room dedicated to featuring all of your action figures so you can keep your gaming experience totally apart from your collecting.

2. Psychedelic Jungle Loft

Best Game Room Ideas 2019

Specifications:

  • CPU: Intel Core i9-7900X
  • CPU Cooler: NZXT Kraken X72 Liquid CPU Cooler

  • IKEA PS 2017 Table Lamp with LED, White
  • BARKABODA Countertop, Walnut
  • LIYUDL Multicolor LED Light Bulb
  • Plug-In Cord Set
  • Pablo PIXO Table Lamp

Nature lovers will have an eyegasm over this setup. If you’re looking for inspiration to make your jungle-themed PC gaming room, this should give you a solid inspiration how to come up with your gaming room.

Placing the plants in the right places is one thing but what gives the jungle feel is the lighting color and the shadows coming from Lightform x Gabriel Schama and the Hybycozo Table Light.

How it can be better:

If you could 3D print something as a replacement for the Hybycozo Table light to match your jungle taste, by all means, do it and feel the jungle around you as you play your favorite video games.

3. Kevster446’s Final Fantasy Inspired Battlestation

Best Game Room Ideas 2019

Specifications:

  • CPU: i7 8700k OC 4.7 GHz

  • Phanteks LED Strip Combo Set
  • Corsair Gaming Mouse Pad
  • Glorious Extended Gaming Desk Mat
  • Corsair Gaming ST100 RGB Premium Headphones Stands with 7.1 Surround Sound

Having this kind of setup allows you to maximize both work and PC gaming at your disposal. Judging by the fact that there’s only one gaming chair in the picture, we can only assume that this is designed for 1 person where one setup is designed for productivity and the other for gaming and browsing.

How it can be better:

If there’s one thing that could potentially make this better, it’s getting a big tabletop to accommodate the two computers side by side. But if this setup makes it easier for what you’re going to be using it for, go for it.

4. Benjamin’s Star Wars Gaming Room

This setup is a good example of featuring both your passion and your hobby right. To the left, you can see the computer neatly set up with the system unit smartly placed up top to the far side of the wall.

To the right, you can see all the collectibles and action figures proudly featured inside a glass cabinet.

How it can be better:

Everything is great as it is. However, a kitchen bar spotlight would be great to enhance the looks of specific parts of the room.

It’s not just 2. This boasts 3 monitors to even further any gamer’s overall experience, 3 Ultrawide monitors at that. If all those screens still aren’t enough. Don’t worry, this has a 135” projector perfectly hidden above through a slit to make the entire PC Gaming setup clean as possible.

How it can be better:

There’s nothing that can be done to best this PC Gaming setup. But if you have to squeeze something in, it’s a refrigerator to make it all the more convenient for you to get rehydrated.

6. UrAvgConsumer’s Ultimate Gamer’s Paradise

Best Game Room Ideas 2019

  • CPU: Intel Core i7 6700K
  • GPU: 2x Geforce GTX 1080

There’s also a smaller room inside that’s used to store his headphones and other peripherals to keep the main room tidy.

How it can be better:

It will look better if you change the honeycomb designs above with Nanoleaf Aurora Light Panels.

If you want your gaming room to have all the essentials but you have little space to spare, this should at least give you inspiration on how to work things out. Take note, this has a PS4 and some Gunpla on top of the triple monitor setup.

How it can be better:

Adding picture frames is fine but smaller frames would most definitely make the room look more spacious and one of the best gaming setups around. Still, it’s a matter of personal preference.

8. Adrian’s Pro Streamer Gaming Room

Best Game Room Ideas 2019

Specifications:

  • CPU: Intel Core i7-8700K CPU

The entire room is designed to give the user a competitive edge when playing competitive games like PUBG, Fortnite, and other competitive eSports games. To the far left (not visible in the picture) is a refrigerator you can conveniently reach out to keep you hydrated at all times.

How it can be better:

If there’s something here that you could add, it’s a decent amount of white lights. Even if you could change the RGB lights at will, a bar spotlight lighting over your head will still do wonders for your eyes and give you one of the best gaming setups around.

9. Loc’s Republic of Gamers Gaming Room

Best Game Room Ideas 2019

Specifications:

  • CPU: Intel Core i9-7900X CPU

  • Xbox Wireless Controllers

Others:

  • Custom Made Desk

This can also be used as an inspiration if you have a limited space for all your goodies. It’s very simple and straightforward but in a really good way. You only have the table that’s spacious enough to accommodate 2 computers. If you’re living with your girlfriend or boyfriend who’s also a gamer by heart, this ROG/Overwatch inspired room will most definitely give you some idea.

How it can be better:

A fridge for all your snacks and hydration needs will most definitely make this man cave worth living for at least… forever.

FIlling a big room with the right gaming peripherals is hard. But if you have plenty of hardware and gaming consoles in your arsenal, this should give you a viable idea of how to fill the room accordingly.

How it can be better:

To make it look good, a touch of LED RGB lighting behind the desks or adding a few more nano leaf panels should do the trick.

How it can be better:

We can’t think of anything we could add to the picture but definitely, two or three picture frames of your favorite anime character or video game character will add your personality in the picture.

12. The___Godfather___’s $8,700+ Game Room

Best Game Room Ideas 2019

  • 2x Alex Drawers
  • 2 of BQLZR Stainless Steel Kitchen Adjustable Feet Round 2″ Dia Furniture Leg
  • Tomons Swing Arm LED Desk Lamp
  • iLC LED Color Changing Light Bulb with Remote Control RGBW Edison Screw

One notable thing about the entire setup is the fact that this cost over $8,700! It may not look like it but the entire picture speaks cleanliness, power, and simplicity– and that’s what matters.

Unlike hardcore gaming rooms, this isn’t filled with RGB lighting. But hey, it’s still a personal preference at the end of the day.

How it can be better:

The pair of headsets here is fine for the user but adding a decent pair of speakers will complete the picture. This allows you to listen to your favorite music artists when you’re doing something other than sitting and browsing the internet.

13. Netflix and Game!

Best Game Room Ideas 2019

Specifications:

  • CPU: Intel Core i7-6700K CPU
  • GPU: Asus GTX 1080 FE
  • RAM: Corsair RAM
  • SSD: Samsung 500GB SSD

Others:

  • Fiio E10K USB AMP/DAC
  • RGB LED Light Strip
  • NZXT Hue+ PC Lighting

Judging by how the other monitor is angled vertically, I’d say this is a PC gaming setup made for streaming. But considering the fact that there are no visible web cams, it’s safe to say that this is made for programming tasks. Regardless, this works perfectly for both– no, any tasks.

How it can be better:

A larger table will give you more space to work on and even allows you to do a horizontal dual monitor setup.

14. Intergalactic Gaming Room

Best Game Room Ideas 2019

Specifications:

  • CPU: Intel Core i7-7700

Others:

  • Secret Lab Omega Gaming Chair

If you’re into intergalactic themes, you can pull off something that’s as otherworldly as this. Just look at how the wires are neatly hidden under the table.

How it can be better:

A larger lamp to both sides of the room will make it look better. Or something like a kitchen bar spotlight to add a decent amount of light to the setup will surely make your setup brighter.

15. War Never Changes (Fallout Themed Gaming Setup)

  • VIVO Vertebrae Cable Management (added LED strip)
  • Douk Audio Vintage VFD Tube

With the recent release of Fallout 76, it’s impossible not to include something that’s based on the game. The image speaks for itself and is neatly executed. Since there are no visible webcams in the picture, the vertical monitor is likely used for programming and other tasks that benefit from that setup.

How it can be better:

If something is missing here, it would be Fallout’s signature Nuka-Cola. A custom-made fridge with a glass door to feature these would make the setup a full-fledged Fallout theme.

It’s not necessarily about the room but it’s the peripherals and desks that you use that make it possible. Matched with a decent amount of white and natural light from the left window and you get a perfect setup for your type of outdoor activity and one of the best gaming setups to boot..

How it can be better:

There’s nothing that could be done to make this better. But if it were me, I’d have a glass cabinet featuring jars of dirt from different places I’ve been to.
