  • Your evening starts with the arrangement of your gaming station. Make sure to have two controllers, snacks and a cozy atmosphere. You start playing your guy's favorite video games as it would make him happy and more engaged. Remember, it's not about who wins or loses, it's about how much fun you have together.
  • After you're done playing his favorites, try a new video game. It could be anything from an adventurous open-world video game to a fast-paced racing game. This could be a great opportunity to try something you both have never done before, thus creating a shared memory. A bit of friendly competition never hurt anyone, either.
  • As the night progresses, you can switch to some less action-intense games, take a break for a light dinner, and then end your video game night with classic games like Tetris or Mario Kart. The idea is to make the most out of the night by keeping it exciting and relaxed.

Preparation steps:

  • Make sure you have a console or a PC capable of multiplayer gaming. Arrange two controllers. Create an ambient environment for a gaming night. You can do something simple like adjusting the lights, or you can go the extra mile and create a literal gaming station with everything you might need within arm's reach.
  • Get a variety of video games. You must have your partner's favorite games and some new ones you can explore together. Make sure the games you pick includes both your favorites, or something in the genre you both enjoy.
  • As it's a free activity, you need to ensure that you have everything ready for the day. Make sure your console or PC is in good working condition. Set up everything ready before your partner arrives to avoid any hassles.
