This year unlike years prior have certainly not been in favor due to the tensions that continue to strangle society as the COVID-19 and the entailed precautionary measures have affected virtually everyone. And although avid players can indulge indoors with video games in the meantime, there still is the burden left as reality surely stresses people in the long term if social distancing and mandatory quarantine can affect your wellbeing.

Thankfully, newly formed charity Safe In Our World has announced that the organization will be offering advice during these troubling times with the COVID-19 Hub. It is understandable how much pressure that anyone could be facing from decisions swayed by the novel coronavirus and Safe In Our World is available to assist to lighten the weight on your mind.

With this new initiative from the charity, people can look towards the COVID-19 Hub for solutions on mantling stress sourced from the issue, techniques for extended periods of isolation, and showcase titles that might sooth your mental troubles until we return back to a properly functioning society.

As a charity, we’re doing our best to support those around us, and the wider industry. Whether working from home within the industry, or our players, everyone will be adjusting to a new normal. This dedicated hub is designed to signpost techniques to help deal with the challenge of isolation. We’ll continue to do everything we can to help.

Leo Zullo, Safe In The World Chairman

The past few weeks have been met with cancellation/postponement of approaching shows that were scheduled for 2020 like the Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) in Los Angeles and Combo Breaker in Illinois. And while other events like the Game Developers Conference (GDC) have sought to late Summer for the virus to die off, other organizers like Game for Gamescom have contemplated potential digital formats instead of in-person shows.

The response to the growing outbreak in the gaming industry has focused on the shift of anticipated events for the most part, however, the mental being for players & streamers is also a concern that we as people must also take into consideration as the world surely will not be the same as we left it before the pandemic became a global issue.

If there are any issues that you are currently dealing with, Rectify Gaming strongly suggests you visit the COVID-19 Hub to relieve any problems during these unprecedented times.
