when does gamestop close

Most GameStop stores close between 8:00 pm and 9:00 pm local time on regular weekdays, but the exact closing time varies by location, mall, and day of the week.

Quick Scoop

  • Many U.S. GameStop locations follow a rough pattern like 10:00 am–8:00 pm or 11:00 am–8:00 pm on weekdays.
  • Some mall stores stay open later, often until 9:00 pm when the mall itself closes.
  • Holiday hours (Black Friday, Christmas Eve, etc.) can be extended or reduced, and Christmas Day is typically fully closed.
  • International stores (like in Europe or Norway) may close earlier in the evening (for example, 8:00 pm on weekdays and 6:00 pm on Saturdays in some locations).

How to find the exact closing time for your store

  1. Search “GameStop” in Google Maps or Apple Maps, tap your nearest store, and check “Hours” for today’s closing time.
  2. Visit the official store locator on GameStop’s website and enter your ZIP/postal code to see local hours.
  3. If you’re still unsure (or it looks unusual, like temporary hours), call the store directly; staffing changes and local rules can shift hours on short notice.

If it’s within about 30–45 minutes of the listed closing time, it’s smart to call ahead so you don’t arrive right as they lock the doors.
