PLDT Home Fibr, Sony PS4 bring ultimate gaming at home

-

Following a historic year marked by successful partnershi­p launches with renowned global brands like iflix and Fox Entertainm­ent Channels for content, and Microsoft and Intel for the TVolution Stick, PLDT Home, the digital services unit of leading telco PLDT, is back in the spotlight. This time, it heralds the arrival of a new era in ultimate gaming at home.

After bagging the best digital innovation honor at the recently-concluded CIO Asia Awards, PLDT Home’s Fibr, in partnershi­p with multinatio­nal entertainm­ent giant Sony, will provide the best home gaming experience with an exciting partnershi­p offer for fun-loving Filipino families and gaming enthusiast­s.

Considered by gamers as one of the most powerful gaming consoles in the world, the PS4 provides immersive experience­s through high-fidelity graphics. It is powered by a custom chip that contains eight x86-64 cores and a state-of-the-art 1.84 TFLOPS graphics processor with 8 GB of ultra-fast GDDR5 unified system memory. This translates to easier game creation and enhanced richness of content achievable on the platform.

One of the most popular games for PS4 is the Nathan Drake series dubbed Uncharted. One of the most revered game series of all time, it is recognized as a genre-defining epic that changed the game for adventure storytelli­ng. After three successful installmen­ts, a fourth chapter titled Uncharted 4:

A Thief’s End is expected to be released this year. It picks up several years after the last adventure of retired fortune hunter Nathan Drake as he is forced back into the world of thieves.

PLDT VP and Home marketing director Gary Dujali said, “Last year, we raised the bar for home entertainm­ent with our compelling product and multimedia content portfolio. This year, we’re bringing gaming into the fold and leveling up the experience for our subscriber­s by empowering them to enjoy ultimate gaming at home.

PLDT Home Fibr will be bundled with a Sony PlayStatio­n 4 (PS4) gaming console for an additional P749 per month within a 36-month period. And for an additional P100 at P849 per month, subscriber­s will get compliment­ary copy of Uncharted 4: A Thief’s End when it launches on May 10.
