The COVID-19 pandemic has forced people worldwide to adopt social distancing measures, leading many to turn to digital channels for connection. Gaming, once considered a solitary activity, has evolved into a highly social experience with the advent of multiplayer mode and widespread internet connectivity. In response to the pandemic, the World Health Organization (WHO) launched the #PlayApartTogether initiative, encouraging people to stay socially active through video games.
