Initiatives are multiplying to react to the invasion of Ukraine by Russia, and the world of video games is far from remaining insensitive. As it had done to defend the Black Lives Matter cause or to help the Palestinians, Itch.io is launching a new bundle intended to raise funds for two Ukrainian NGOs.
Offered from 10 dollars (9,21 euros), this pack comprising 991 video games will help the International Medical Corps, which provides emergency medical assistance in the field, and Voices of Children, which helps children traumatized by war to resume a normal life.
Developers are mobilizing for Ukraine
In addition to acting for a good cause, the pack offered on Itch.io by Necrosoft Games is full of little treasures for lovers of independent games.
Among the big pieces, we can mention Backbone, Superhot, Curious Expedition, Night Call or Celeste, who is a regular at this kind of initiative. There are also other games previously offered in different bundles such as A Short Hike, Burry Me My Love or Baba is You.
As usual with Itch.io, you will then have to go to the page of each game to add them manually to your account. A tedious process, which can nevertheless be facilitated by using a script made available by a redditor at this address.
In recent days, support from the video game industry has multiplied in favor of Ukraine. Yesterday, it is in particular Activision-Blizzard which announced to suspend the sale of its games and downloadable contents in Russia.
