Well now we can say that it is a complete success. It has only been a day since this initiative came into force and it has already reached the mark of $36 million dollars. This is how the people affected by the war will receive the help they so badly need.
It should be noted that Epic Games has the support of the division of Xbox from microsoftso that the net profits obtained from Fortnite they are arriving complete without the commission of this console manufacturer.
Something that comes out of these numbers is how much this battle royale thanks to the aesthetic content within the reach of the players. How much will be raised in the 15 days that this fundraiser will last?
If more or less the same were obtained every day, we would be talking about more than $500 million dollars. That would be an invaluable help for organizations like Direct Relief, UNICEF, LDC and UNHCR.
As previously noted Epic Games, this is only a preliminary list, and it is planned to support more humanitarian entities. Much can be done for the more than 10 million people displaced inside and outside Ukraine by the war.
