Epic Games, developer of Fortnite, has announced that all the proceeds generated by its Battle Royale for the next two weeks will be donated to various entities of charities supporting Ukrainian humanitarian aid. These include all the contents that can be purchased in the shop such as V-Buck Packs, Fortnite Crew, Battle Pass given away and aesthetic packs such as the Voidlander Pack. The team promises that 100% of its proceeds from now through April 3, 2022 will be donated. Any taxes, third party platform fees, refunds, returns or cancellations must be excluded.
The Epic Games initiative acquires greater value since the second season of Fortnite kicks off today. This means that many will resort to microtransactions to receive new content and progress quickly. As a result, the sum donated to charity could really reach important figures. If you want to support the cause, now is the time.
