GameStop outlet in Kilkenny closing down


The Kilkenny outlet of GameStop in Market Cross is one of the many GameStop outlets in Ireland that have commenced closing down sales.
The development comes as speculation mounts that the retailer is preparing to exit the Irish market.
Back in March, GameStop ceased the provision of a number of services in their Irish stores and on their website.
These services included the sale of gift cards, trade-in and purchase of used devices and accessories, GameStop Pro Loyalty services, game protection and pre-orders of some products.
In 2022, financial reports for GameStop's Irish arm stated that its future was in 'significant doubt' as a result of ongoing losses at the company.
Kilkenny Live have reached out to GameStop seeking confirmation of when exactly the Kilkenny store will be closing, asking for the reason behind the closure, and if the company are planning to exit the Irish market completely.
