Ukraine has been in a war against Russia for quite some time now and has seen massive destruction due to air raids and missile attacks directed by the soviet power. Epic Games came to the front to raise funds for the badly-hit Ukraine, becoming the largest donor yet. Apart from Epic games, Humble launched a 7-days-long Stand with Ukraine bundle, raising around USD 20 million from March 18 to 25 by selling 473,945 bundles to the gamers.
