About

What was PlayStation Home?

PlayStation Home was Sony's free 3D social world for the PlayStation 3. From its open beta in December 2008 until it closed on March 31, 2015, players built avatars, decorated their own apartments, played mini-games and met friends in public spaces like Home Square, the Hub and countless game-themed lounges.

When the official servers went dark, the community kept Home alive. Today the HHQ (Home Headquarters) server runs it again, and PsHomeCentral brings it to everyone: play in any web browser on a computer, tablet or phone, on a real PS3, or on the RPCS3 emulator, all in the same shared spaces.
