Travel-friendly gadgets to keep you gaming this summer

If you have plans to travel this summer but still want to get gaming time in, a few compact accessories can make all the difference. Whether you’re heading abroad or just need better on-the-go gear, these picks help keep play smooth and comfortable. If the Nintendo Switch 2 is your handheld of choice, a USB-C fan such as the Sokelinn-six can be transformative.

It fits into the USB-C port at the top of the device; while it may draw extra power, it delivers a strong flow of cool air to help combat overbearing summer heat. Battery life is another travel headache, so a power bank is essential. The U-Green 25,000mAh option mentioned here holds enough juice to top up a Switch 2, Steam Deck, or smartphone, which is especially useful if your travel details and itinerary live on your phone.

No matter your vacation plans, this selection of accessories aims to make your trip a memorable—and nerdy—break.
