PlayStation is also giving away Journey and Uncharted: The Nathan Drake Collection to all PS4 customers for a limited time (between Wednesday, April 15 - Tuesday, May 5) to "help keep the PlayStation community entertained at home". For users in China and Germany, Sony is offering Knack 2 in place of The Nathan Drake Collection.

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.

Users in Germany and China will not have access to the Uncharted collection. Instead, users in those two countries will be granted free digital copies of 2017's action game Knack 2 and Journey.

Trust me, you want to get Knack 2 more than Uncharted trilogy.

This is free to own?

Pretty awesome if so.

Been thinking about revisiting the series.

Germany and China win

Seriously though, this is a good initiative by Sony. Free games obviously shouldn't be an expectation, but it will certainly help folks.

Actually disappointed that I'm not getting Knack 2.

Good stuff on the fund though, especially what we heard over how the Coronavirus situation has severely impacted indie devs.

I already own all 3 of them but I'm curious why China and Germany get Knack 2 instead.

Anyway, that's a nice gesture especially the 10 million fund for indie developers.

I too would have preferred Knack 2 if given the choice (since I've already played UC).

Wonder if we can set up a Chinese PSN account to get it? Though I'm guessing the game will be in Chinese.

I got the collection from Plus, so, thanks, Sony 🤓

Edit: Oh shit, my account is UK based, no Knack for me 😓

Yep, anyone that already claimed these with PS Plus is SOL since it will say you already have it. Unfortunately you don't get to keep it then if PS Plus expires.

Only $10M? Many indie games aren't releasing on PS4 anymore, only pc and switch eventually get them, that's why I'm moving to PC next gen.

Edit: Sorry, I misread the tweet.
