Sony Wants You To Play At Home

How are you holding up during the pandemic? My fiancee and I are on Week 5 of isolation, only going out twice a month to the pharmacy to pick up prescriptions. We get our groceries delivered and disinfect everything that comes into the house. Being immunocompromised can be tough on a regular day, but we all know that days lately are far from regular, so we're doing our best to stay home for our own sakes and for the sake of anyone we would come into contact with if we were to contract the virus.

How are you holding up during the pandemic?  My fiancee and I are on Week 5 of isolation, only going out twice a month to the pharmacy to pick up prescriptions.  We get our groceries delivered and disinfect everything that comes into the house.  Being immunocompromised can be tough on a regular day, but we all know that days lately are far from regular, so we're doing our best to stay home for our own sakes and for the sake of anyone we would come into contact with if we were to contract the virus.  Times are tough, scary, and uncertain.  Sony is doing a little to try and help with the isolation madness by offering free downloads of Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection and Journey for the PlayStation 4 for a limited time as a little incentive to stay home.  The PlayStation Blog has the details on this limited time offer.

People all over the world are doing the right thing by staying home to help contain the spread of COVID–19. We are deeply grateful to everyone practicing physical distancing and take our responsibility as a home entertainment platform seriously, so we are asking our community to continue supporting the safe choice and the need to Play At Home.

As a thank you to all who are doing their part to lessen the impact of this pandemic, Sony Interactive Entertainment is pleased to announce the Play At Home initiative. 

To support Play At Home, PlayStation will try to make those occasionally dull moments more exciting by offering Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection and Journey available for free for a limited time through digital downloads from April 15 at 8pm PDT through May 5, 2020 at 8pm PDT Once you redeem the games, they are yours to keep.

The company is also earmarking ten million dollars for a fund to help independent developers stay afloat.  Anything that helps communities is greatly appreciated right now.  Everyone could use a little happiness, and a free download of Uncharted is a great way to facilitate that.   Stay home!  Play some games!  You'll be healthier for it.
