The retro‑gaming revival just found its newest fashion statement. My Play Watch, the fast‑growing innovator behind fully playable gaming wearables, has announced that its flagship range is now shipping across the UK and Europe—marking the company’s biggest expansion since its breakout debut in 2024.
Founded after a hugely successful Kickstarter campaign, My Play Watch has carved out a unique niche: wearable tech that doesn’t just look nostalgic, but actually plays the classics. Their devices fuse iconic gaming franchises with modern touchscreen hardware, delivering bite‑sized gameplay sessions directly from the wrist—no apps, no pairing, no smartphone required.

The company’s first release, SPACE INVADERS™: My Play Watch, set the tone for the brand’s mission. Developed in partnership with TAITO, the watch features a fully playable version of the legendary arcade shooter, complete with authentic graphics, sound effects, and a retro‑styled red arcade crown.
