Just like with other charitable initiatives, Epic Games' support for the Ukrainian cause was not wasted. the players have welcomed the initiative of the Fortnite producers, so much so that in the last few days the results of this campaign have been revealed. “Together we have raised 36 million dollars for humanitarian aid in Ukraine. The funds raised will go to Unicef, UNWFP, Direct Relief and the UN refugee agency ", reads the twitter launched in the last few hours via the game's official Twitter account.

The fundraiser has exceeded the total raised by the itch.io bundle (about 4 million dollars) and it is probably the charity initiative that has raised the most of all those organized by video game producers. The rally obviously does not stop and indeed, will go on: there are still two weeks left for Epic Games to raise even more donations and aid. We are quite certain that in April the amount raised will be far higher than we can imagine.
