I’ve actually stunned myself and somehow figured this out. See my messy code below.
Each category has an image assigned in ACF (prod_image). I created a group “Taxonomy is equal to Category”, field type “Taxonomy” with radio buttons outputting a term ID.
<?php
$the_cat = get_the_category();
$the_cat = get_the_category( $id );
$category_name = $the_cat[0]->cat_name;
$category_link = get_category_link( $the_cat[0]->cat_ID );
?>
<!--Related Games-->
<?php if( get_field('show_related_games', 'term_'. $cat_id) ): ?>
<div>
<!--Section Title-->
<h3>
<?php the_field( 'related_games_title', 'term_'. $cat_id ); ?>
</h3>
<!--Repeat field-->
<?php if( have_rows('related_game', 'term_'. $cat_id) ): while ( have_rows('related_game', 'term_'. $cat_id) ) : the_row(); ?>
<!--Product-->
<div>
<?php $term_id = get_sub_field('related_link');
if( $term_id):
$term_name = get_cat_name( $term_id ) ;
$term_url = get_category_link( $term_id );
$prod_image = get_field( 'prod_image', 'term_'. $term_id);?>
<a href="<?php echo $term_url; ?>" class="relatedprod" target="_blank">
<!--Packshot-->
<?php if ( $prod_image ) { ?>
<img src="<?php echo $prod_image['url']; ?>" alt="<?php echo $prod_image['alt']; ?>" />
<?php } ?>
<!--Product Info-->
<div class="prodinfo">
<div class="gamename">
<?php echo $term_name; ?>
</div>
<div class="smallgreencta">
<?php the_sub_field('cta_text'); ?>
</div>
</div>
</a>
<?php endif; ?>
</div>
<?php endwhile; else :
// no rows found
endif; ?>
</div>
<?php endif;?>
