In the world of kids’ gaming, trends move fast. One week it’s all about football matches on FC26, the next it’s building worlds in Minecraft, battling it out in Fortnite, or racing cars on Rocket League. If there’s one thing we’ve learned running a gaming van and gaming bus service in Liverpool and the North West, it’s this:


👉 Kids play what their mates play.

And those trends spread through schools quickly.


Gaming Trends Spread at Playground Speed


Games don’t become popular slowly anymore. A new update drops, a YouTuber posts a video, or one child starts talking about a game at school — and suddenly everyone wants to play it.


That’s why we don’t guess what games kids might like.

We actively stay on top of gaming trends, listening to what kids are talking about, what parents are asking for, and what’s dominating consoles right now.


From birthday parties in Liverpool to gaming bus events across the North West, we see first-hand how fast gaming trends move — and we adapt just as fast.


We Play What Kids Want to Play


A big reason parents choose our gaming bus and gaming van hire is simple:

We have the games kids actually want.


Right now, that includes:


  • ⚽ FC26 – always one of the most requested games

  • ⛏️ Minecraft – creative mode, survival, building with friends

  • 🚗 Rocket League – football with cars (still massive in schools)

  • 🎮 Roblox – endless games, endless creativity

  • 🔫 Fortnite – battle royale fun with friends


And that’s just the start.


100 Games on Every Console 🚀


Every screen on our gaming bus is fully loaded. We run over 100 games on every console, meaning there’s something for everyone — whether kids are competitive gamers, casual players, or trying a game for the first time.


We use the latest consoles, including PlayStation and Xbox, and we go even further by tapping into:


  • 🎮 PlayStation Plus

  • 🎮 Xbox Game Pass


That gives us hundreds more games available on demand, from brand-new releases to classic favourites. If a game is trending this month, chances are we already have it — or can get it fast.


Why This Matters for Your Child’s Party


Not every child wants the same thing. At a typical gaming party, you’ll have:


  • Football fans

  • Builders and creators

  • Competitive racers

  • Kids who just want to play what their best mate is playing


Our gaming van and gaming bus setup means no one is left out. Multiple screens, multiple games, and complete flexibility — kids can jump in and out of games, try something new, or stick with their favourite all party long.


Parents often tell us this is what makes the difference:


“Every child was happy — no boredom, no arguments.”


Always Up to Date, Always Relevant


Because we operate across Liverpool and the wider North West, we see patterns early. When a game suddenly becomes popular in schools, we know about it almost immediately — and we act on it.


We constantly:


  • Update our game libraries

  • Track what kids are asking for

  • Keep consoles and subscriptions current

  • Make sure age-appropriate options are always available


That’s how we stay ahead of the curve — and why families trust us for birthdays, events, and parties.


The Ultimate Gaming Party Experience


A gaming party isn’t just about screens — it’s about shared experiences, excitement, and letting kids play what they love with their friends.


Whether you’re booking a gaming bus in Liverpool, a gaming van in the North West, or looking for something unforgettable for your child’s birthday, you can be confident that we bring:


✅ The most popular games

✅ The latest consoles

✅ A huge variety of choice

✅ And a setup designed around how kids really play


Because when it comes to gaming, staying relevant is everything — and we keep our finger firmly on the pulse 🎮
