CD Projekt Red Makes a Significant Donation to Support Ukraine's Battle Against Russian Invasion

CD Projekt Red Makes a Significant Donation to aid Ukraine's fight Against Russian Invasion.

CD Projekt Red is the developer of Cyberpunk 2077 and The Witcher has donated emergency assistance in support of Ukraine's war against the Russian invasion.

Despite the fact that Ukraine has been defending its territory against Russian invasion and occupation since 2014, Russia launched an unprovoked assault on the capital and the rest of the country on February 24, 2022. As a result, the Ukrainian people are actively battling for their freedom and liberation from the occupiers, resulting in a nationwide humanitarian disaster. Countries, corporations, and people all over the world have demonstrated their support and solidarity in many ways, and the game industry is no exception.

CD Projekt Red, the developer of the cyberpunk and Witcher games, was among the first in the sector to help the country in its hour of need. The studio gave one million PLN (about $242,000 USD) to Polish Humanitarian Action, a humanitarian group that works directly with injured and homeless Ukrainians.

The organization immediately pinned CD Projekt Red's Tweet, adding that the donations would be used to provide immediate support and aid to Ukrainians suffering as a result of Russia's assault. According to the website of Polish Humanitarian Action, the organization has already raised over $1,336,000 USD for this cause. Ukrainians' bravery even inspired a spoof movie depicting the Ghost of Kyiv, who shot down six Russian air forces invading the capital.

The recent invasion on Ukraine, our friends and neighbours, left us shocked and outraged.

In solidarity with all victims of this act of aggression, the CD PROJEKT Group has decided to support humanitarian aid efforts by donating 1 million PLN to the @PAH_org (1/2)

CD Projekt Red asks all players and developers to support the country, which is defending its own territory as well as the rest of Europe. It also attempted to educate everyone who saw the contribution message about the destruction caused by conflict. The developers of STALKER have also issued a statement addressing the war, emphasizing the tragedy that has befallen the people of Ukraine as well as the crime committed by the Russian government.

Although some Ukrainians fight to defend their country, others escape the country with their families in order to live, as almost the entire country, including the capital, has become a battlefield. A Savage Games developer just fled the nation with the assistance of his coworkers, and he is one of several who has had to do so. Gamers who have been educated about the current conflict have encouraged one another to spread the word in order to persuade their governments to take action in favor of Ukraine and against Russia, which the majority of countries have already done.

 As Russia's aggression increases, the gaming community continues to show its support, with Pokemon Presents being actively under-marketed in order to make more room on social media for Ukraine-related news. In the case of CD Projekt Red, it feels that the entire world should unite its efforts in assisting the people of Ukraine and assisting in driving back the Russian invaders as the fate of the world's peace is decided.
