Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection and Journey will be free to download later this week on PlayStation 4, as part of Sony’s new Play At Home initiative during the COVID-19 lockdown. The initiative was unveiled by Sony Interactive president and CEO Jim Ryan earlier today.
Not only will Play At Home offer free games for players, but it will also develop a $10 million fund. The aim of the fund is to assist small indie game makers and studios who are experiencing financial difficulties “continue building great experiences for all gamers.”
For all of us stuck inside, the intention of the initiative is “to help keep the PlayStation community entertained at home”. More details of the fund are due at a later time. In the meantime, the free games become available for download on the PlayStation Store from 8 pm PT. For the US, the games go live on April 15, and for the UK, April 16 at 4 am
