But it was while trying to score on the video game that he bagged the blonde beauty consultant.
Littler hit the Bullseye when he started chatting on the Xbox to Eloise Milburn after being introduced by mutual friends.
The report they grew close over their mutual love of both FIFA and darts.
And it is said the Manchester United fan has officially been going out with Eloise for six weeks - just in time for Littler to be given an extra Xbox controller for Christmas.

They fell for each other despite living more than 200 miles apart.
Littler - who faces 2018 champ Rob Cross for a place in tomorrow's PDC final and a £500,000 jackpot - is based in Warrington while Eloise's home is in Hersham, Surrey.
The 21-year-old was in attendance at Ally Pally rocking a matching shirt to cheer her new beau on against Brendan Dolan on New Year's Day - before giving him a congratulatory kiss following the thumping 5-1 win.
And she took to Instagram to send a message of support to the teenage sensation, who has already banked £100,000 in prize money for reaching the final four.

And his No1 fan knows her fair share about darts, too, because Eloise plays at the Walton Working Men's Club and is even on the Surrey Women's darts team.
As well as their passion for darts, they also share a love of football - with the beauty consultant a big Crystal Palace supporter.
She also worked behind the bar at Hersham Golf Club and enjoys a trip to the theatre to watch musicals.
The Avon sales rep proves she could still have a future with the microphone as a video of her singing Adele's Easy On Me revealed her fantastic voice.
And now a brand and culture expert believes Littler and Eloise - as well as Luke's sister Caitlin - can be as big as the Furys, including boxers Tyson and Tommy and his partner Molly-Mae Hague.
Nick Ede told SunSport: "Luke is the next big thing in sports but also as a celebrity in his own right.
"He has the ability to make millions with darts endorsements, and draw in a whole new demographic of players and fans, and also, more importantly, away from the board.
