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.

Apple is developing an AI-powered wearable device, aiming for a launch of 20 million units in the growing AI market.


Apple is reportedly developing an AI-powered wearable device equipped with cameras and speakers, signalling its next major move into artificial intelligence-driven hardware.

While still in early development, the company is said to be planning a launch scale of up to 20 million units.

This move places Apple squarely into the fast-growing AI wearable market, where tech giants are racing to define what hands-free, AI-first devices will look like. Rather than rushing to market, Apple appears to be taking a measured approach by embedding AI capabilities into its existing ecosystem.

Reports suggest Apple is also experimenting with camera-equipped AirPods and smart glasses, with a potential launch timeline around 2027. If successful, these devices could reshape how users interact with AI in everyday life.
