You deserve to get in some gaming time this summer, and these travel-friendly gadgets will help with that

We’re all going on a summer holiday! Well, I’m not. I have a summer of gaming at home in the works, but if you have plans for a trip abroad or have anything else booked that allows you to game on the go, I’ve gathered some travel-friendly gadgets that can help with that.

I don’t want to assume that it’s the Nintendo Switch 2 that’s your summer console of choice. Yet, if it is, I can’t emphasize enough how life-changing a USB-C fan like the Sokelinn-six one I’ve added below really is. They easily fit in the USB-C port at the top of the handheld, and while they can be a bit of a battery drain, they blast a lovely flow of cool air in your face, which helps combat the overbearing summer heat.

Talking of battery woes, a power bank is one of my other travel go-tos, whether it’s for my Switch 2, Steam Deck, or just my smartphone. An option like the U-Green 25,000mAh version I’ve included down below has enough juice to power up a Switch 2, Steam Deck, or your phone, which is important to keep powered up if you’ve got all your travel details and itinerary on there. No matter your vacation gaming plans, I’ve gathered an array of accessories that will help make it a memorable (and equally nerdy) break.
