Monument Valley 3, the latest installment in ustwo's acclaimed puzzle series, will donate 3% of its profits over the next three years to charity. This contribution will support the IFRC (International Federation of Red Cross & Red Crescent Societies) and their Disaster Response Emergency Fund.
This philanthropic initiative aligns with ustwo's status as a B-corp game studio, signifying a commitment to social and environmental responsibility. Given Monument Valley 3's wide reach on Netflix Games, this donation could be substantial.
Ustwo's commitment to social and environmental causes is not new. Previous titles, such as Alba: A Wildlife Adventure, have incorporated these themes, and Desta: The Memories Between saw collaborations with UK youth charities.
A Charitable Contribution
Monument Valley 3's positive reception, including a five-star review from this publication, is noteworthy. The long-term impact of this 3% donation remains to be seen, especially considering its availability on Netflix Games, a platform without in-app purchases or fees. This implies the donation will come directly from ustwo's resources, a commendable act of corporate social responsibility. This, combined with the company's public support for the IFRC and other organizations, will undoubtedly benefit these vital groups.
