Safe In Our World Announces First Ever Winter Blues Bundle to support Gamers and their Mental Health

Shining a positive light in the post-festive Season, The Mega Value Winter Blues Bundle will support the Work of the Video Games Mental Health Charity

Video Games Mental Health Charity, Safe In Our World in partnership with Fanatical, are proud to announce the upcoming Winter Blues Bundle, featuring a total of thirteen games and two DLCs with all proceeds going towards further supporting the charities endeavours. Available exclusively via the dedicated partner Fanatical the bundle, worth over £200 / $250, will be available to purchase on February 4, 2022.

At its core, Safe In Our World believes that video games can provide an excellent medium to improving mental health, whether this is through personal adventures, group missions, or everything in between. This is of significant importance throughout the winter months where, in the UK alone, around 13 in 100 people experience the Winter Blues, up to 6 in 100 people are thought to have Seasonal Affective Disorder, and the effects of reduced sunlight throughout the post-festive season are particularly detrimental to our overall mental health and wellbeing. Therefore, each unique game within the bundle has been meticulously selected to inspire and support gamers throughout this challenging season.

The upcoming Safe In Our World Winter Blues Bundle features thirteen games and two DLCs kindly provided by the charities Level Up Partners. The bundle offers players a welcome escape from reality during this difficult time of the year for mental health and wellbeing:
