PlayStation Home Redesign Starts Tomorrow
Whether you're someone who's never checked out Home or you're a diehard, Sony's redesigning the social games space to give people more of what they want: games.
This restructuring of Home allows you to keep all the items, spaces, and info you've accrued since it began, while at the same time bringing the service's free games to the forefront. Home is now divided up into five distinct districts mirroring the content within. The Hub itself is where you can pick up Home-wide meta quests that make Home a game within itself. Meanwhile, the Action, Sportswalk, Adventure, and Pier Park areas are appropriately themed and house games related to that genre.
For instance, in the Action district you'll find the Bootleggers '29 first-person shooter, while the Sportswalk contains the PlayStation Home Hold 'Em free-to-play card game. Elsewhere at the Pier Park, you can build your own RC car and race against others in RC Rally.
Whatever your inclination, you can log into Home and check out the new landscape tomorrow, November 3rd.

I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
