Due to the influx of people joining our Discord Server, I've decided to compile a set of FAQs. Hopefully, this (FAQ) post will answer most of your inquiries about this project.

👕 Any purchases you made in-game prior to PlayStation Home's closure on April 1st, 2015 will once again be accessible to you IF you're using your ORIGINAL ACCOUNT. Barring any potential risks involved with accessing the game post-closure, we're also unsure if this will have a reaction from Sony so it's best to tread lightly -- though a response from them is probably unlikely. (Things not stored on your PSN account are excluded from this e.g. rewards, furniture layout, etc).

If I already have PlayStation®Home installed can I just access the Destination Home Servers, with a simple DNS change?

🌐 If you already have the PlayStation®Home installed you will need to delete your version since our client has enhanced security components that allow you to connect to our private servers. However, BEFORE deleting your Home application, you should highly consider donating your data to the team as we can restore even more Home online content for our network infrastructure solution and preserve any digital data that was once alive on Home's networking implementation.
🤖 As of 6/23/2022 the Destination Home Team has now deployed our official Cache Bot that automatically accepts Home cache donations for our community in our Discord Server. To get started users can type in the following arguments/commands:
  • /cache upload <link here> [version] [size] [region]

  • Note any values in [square brackets] are optional and can be added by completing the previous parameter with TAB. By adding such parameters like size or region gives the development team a preview of what to expect from your unique cache dump!

Will I have my original rewards, that I've once earned on original PlayStation®Home Servers?

🎁 Sadly, users will need to re-earn rewards on our server as all original reward client data has never been archived as it was internally handled by Sony. However, on the brighter side of things, users can earn rewards again for both respective platforms: RPCS3/PS3 client.
