Humble Bundle has raised more than $20 million for humanitarian relief in Ukraine.
“Our all-for-charity Stand With Ukraine bundle has ended,” Humble Bundle’s statement reads on Twitter. “Together, we’ve raised over $20 million for humanitarian relief efforts in Ukraine! Thank you all for your support!!!”
The bundle, which ran from March 18 to March 25, saw 473,796 people scoop-up hundreds of games for super cheap. All proceeds are going directly to organizations like International Medical Corps, International Rescue Committee, Razom for Ukraine, and Direct Relief to aid humanitarian efforts within the country. It’s no surprise this deal took off so well since it had 120 games, including big-name hits the Spyro Reignited Trilogy, Fable Anniversary, Back 4 Blood, Metro Exodus, Slay the Spire, Max Payne 3, and many others more.
The violent invasion in Ukraine is creating an urgent humanitarian crisis.
We joined forces for a bundle of games, books & software to help victims and refugees from Ukraine.
All proceeds to @razomforukraine, @RESCUEorg, @IMC_Worldwide & @DirectRelief https://t.co/yw7Mmyhcdr pic.twitter.com/Tt5zb3hPrg

Humble Bundle is one of the many companies within the games industry aiding Ukraine following Russia’s invasion. The Pokémon Company, Square Enix, Itch.io, and Epic Games are among those either making donations or organizing charity drives. Meanwhile, PlayStation, Xbox, CD Project Red, GSC Game World, and Electronic Arts are not selling hardware or software in Russia while the invasion continues.
