Xbox and IKEA have teamed up to launch some gaming-inspired furniture with a new collection called YXSTABY.

After being shown off at Gamescom 2026 and released in the UK a month or so ago, this marks the first time this collaboration is available in the USA, as per a new Xbox news post.

The nine-piece collection saw designers from both Microsoft and IKEA collaborating on products that combine “performance, comfort, and storage solutions for new everyday wins”, according to the press release.

As per Philip Dilé, Product Developer at IKEA, with the YXSTABY collection, IKEA “worked closely with XBOX to reimagine familiar forms into playful, functional pieces that make it easier for people to bring their love of gaming into the spaces where they live.”

The press release notes both teams saw the Xbox controller as a “recurring source of inspiration”, with the classic D-Pad taking the form of both a cushion and a stainless steel platter.

There is also a thumbstick stool available that was developed from the original 3D design files for the controller, complete with a grippy texture to keep you in place.

The YXSTABY collection also includes a gaming lounge chair, a monitor stand, a TV stand on castors, a side table on castors and a laptop support with storage and accessories.

It’s also not the first time IKEA has collaborated on gaming furniture, as it launched a range of chairs, desks, and other accessories with Asus’ ROG gaming division some years ago.

If you’re interested in any of these items, the press release notes they’re available in IKEA stores right now and will be online “later this year”.
