“We still need you, don’t stop.”
11 Bit Studios, the Polish developer behind Frostpunk and This War of Mine, has announced a substantial 3m PLN (£520k) donation to aid Ukraine.
Writing via Facebook, 11 Bit’s message was simple: “#FuckTheWar”.
The studio had previously said it would also donate all proceeds from the sale of anti-war game This War of Mine over the past week to the Ukrainian Red Cross – one of several developers with similar initiatives.
“Your support gathered for Ukraine warms our hearts,” the studio wrote, “but we still need you, please, do not stop.
“Buy This War of Mine anywhere and support victims of war in Ukraine.”
Numerous video game companies have announced donations and fundraising drives to support humanitarian efforts in Ukraine, such as Unity, Ubisoft, CD Projekt Red, and THQ owner Embracer.
Yesterday, Ukraine’s deputy prime minister has called on PlayStation and Xbox to stop supporting the Russian market completely. EA, meanwhile, will remove Russia from FIFA 22.
This War of Mine is available on Nintendo Switch, PC, PlayStation and Xbox, as well as via the App Store and Google Play.
