The players stood for Ukraine. The creators of Fortnit will send over three billion to help

The astronomical sum was collected in just two weeks. At the same time, players did not have to empty their wallets more than they are normally used to.

Epic Games donated all its proceeds from Fortnite to Ukraine in 14 days – specifically from March 20 to April 3.

At the same time, the amount was increased by a commission under this title from Xbox consoles, which are backed by Microsoft.

The amount raised will be distributed to humanitarian aid to Ukraine, in particular between Direct Relief, World Central Kitchen, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, the World Food Program and UNICEF.

At the same time, the whole event clearly shows how big Fortnite business is for Epic Games. The creators of one of the most successful games today earn billions of crowns every month, even though they offer the game itself for free.

Players only pay for some accessories in the game, which do not give them a competitive advantage – for example, for various clothes and dances.

In the title of Fortnite Battle Royale, players take on the role of survivors who fight for their place under the sun with other players in the post-apocalyptic world. The winner is the one who stays last on his feet. It is also possible to play in teams.
