Major UK retailer to leave the high street for good as it closes remaining stores

Game ends its 30-year UK high-street presence by closing final three stores in April, maintaining an online business and concessions in over 200 Sports Direct and House of Fraser outlets.

  • Game confirmed it will shutter its last three standalone stores in April, ending roughly a 30-year high-street presence in the UK.
  • After entering administration earlier this year, Game has been reducing store numbers, with over 300 stores at peak and the chain closing its Basingstoke headquarters in 2025.
  • Game will keep its online business operating while shifting physical presence into concessions inside more than 200 Sports Direct and House of Fraser stores, and Managing director Nick Arran called gaming the chain’s core business.
  • Game has not confirmed exact closure dates and says the last stores will close soon; gift cards and eVouchers remain valid for two years and are UK-only.
  • Coming weeks will see Game leave the high street for good as company bosses previously insisted on physical sales, despite plans to close its last stores soon.
