Fortnight maker, Epic Games raises $144 million in aid money to support Ukraine victims

Epic announces it will be donating all its raised funds to charities and organizations like Direct Relief, UNICEF, World Food Program, the UN refugee agency, and the Word Central Kitchen.

The money was raised over a two-week period starting from March 20 through April 3.

Epic previously announced its plan to donate all its fortnight proceeds from purchases of battle passes, cosmetic packs, and subscriptions processed during these two weeks.

Xbox joined Epic in its fundraising effort, pledging to “contribute net proceeds for Fortnight during this time.”

Epic and Xbox’s support for Ukraine comes after fellow competitors and game companies like Square Enix and Bandai Namco also donated money and CD Projekt Red halted sales in Russia and Belarus to show solidarity.
