IKEA x Xbox YXSTABY Collection

Xbox Furniture Escapes the Game Room

IKEA and Xbox built YXSTABY for people whose gaming setup shares space with the rest of the home. The nine-piece collection favors compact, movable furniture instead of an oversized racing chair, using Xbox green and small controller references without making every piece look like branded merchandise.

A Stool Modeled on the Thumbstick

The strangest piece is a tilting stool developed from Microsoft's original Xbox controller files. Its rounded top and moving base echo an analog stick, turning an input familiar to players into something they can perch on. A lounge chair takes a more practical route with console-sized side pockets that keep controllers and accessories close.

The TV Can Roll With the Console

YXSTABY also includes IKEA's first mobile TV stand, letting a screen move between rooms or shift out of the way when playtime ends. A toolbox, side table, and cable-storage pieces tackle the less glamorous mess around a console. Hidden symbols and references to the controller's X, Y, A, and B buttons give owners details to discover without overwhelming the furniture's clean shapes.

The collection reaches IKEA stores and its website on October 1 while supplies last. Its best idea is simple: gaming furniture can accommodate the cables, hardware, and long sessions without forcing the entire room to adopt a neon esports aesthetic.
