Dreams developed the bed in response to research that showed that more than 50 per cent of the British population now view gaming as a form of entertainment.

Fabio Perrotta, Purchasing Director at Dreams, said: “We are seeing a real shift in attitudes towards gaming since the pandemic, as well as demand from people who want to enjoy gaming in comfort and style.

“Dreams understands that beds are so much more than just a place to relax, and this inspired us to create the world’s first play bed up to king size.”

The Drift’s launch came shortly after IKEA entered the gaming world with a line of gamer furniture in partnership with Republic of Gamers (ROG).

The range includes tables, chairs and accessories, priced between £7.50 and £350.

“We believe there is still a lot of work to be done to democratize the gaming experience,” said Eva Richert, Head of Workspaces at IKEA.

“We’ve taken the first step on our gaming journey, and we’ve done it by offering consumers affordable, high-performance gaming products and complete home solutions that we hope reflect people’s personalities and tastes.”

CAN VIDEO GAMES MAKE YOU LESS SENSITIVE?

In a recent study, researchers looked at the three games participants played the most and noted whether they were violent (like the Call of Duty shooter) or non-violent (like Fifa).

They tracked participants’ brain waves using electroencephalography (EEG).

At the same time, they completed a “stoplight task” in which the faces of the men and women looked either happy or frightened.

The study found that gaming is associated with lower empathy and emotional callousness.

Researchers believe this is because it inhibits people’s ability to process emotional facial expressions and control their reactions as a result.
