Now that period has ended, and the developer announced that the total donation reached $144 million.

You can read the announcement below.

The organizations that will receive the donations are Direct Relief, UNICEF, UN World Food Programme, the UN Refugee Agency, and World Central Kitchen.

It is worth mentioning that Epic will not wait to receive the funds before donating them. All transactions have been logged as they happened and the corresponding funds are being sent within a few days in order to deliver them as soon as possible.

Funds from Fortnite Subscriptions, including existing, re-activated, and new signups have also been donated.

With the War in Ukraine raging and affecting so many, gamers and gaming companies have rallied to donate, including relevant bundles on itch.io and Humble, that raised a total of $25 million.

Proud weeb hailing from sunny (not as much as people think) Italy and long-standing gamer since the age of Mattel Intellivision and Sinclair ZX Spectrum. Definitely a multi-platform gamer, he still holds the old dear PC nearest to his heart, while not disregarding any console on the market. RPGs (of any nationality), MMORPGs, and visual novels are his daily bread, but he enjoys almost every other genre, prominently racing simulators, action and sandbox games. He is also one of the few surviving fans on Earth of the flight simulator genre.
