Covid -19, the global pandemic that has caused a complete change up on how we live and function as a community as altered nearly every facet of modern living. Considering that most of our living and working takes place without built up urban spaces, it’s little wonder why such drastic precautions are required to help stem the infection of our population. Staying in is certainly the new going out, and despite the application of online conference platforms to maintain professional work duties, the home is firmly, despite the slight easing of lockdown, a place for work, rest and play.
As such home based activities have become more popular, games and computer consoles have seen a renaissance in their popularity in retail as well as taking up new hobbies online.
