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 initiative will support the IFRC (International Federation of Red Cross & Red Crescent Societies) and their Disaster Response Emergency Fund.
This philanthropic effort aligns with ustwo's status as a B-corp game studio, a designation recognizing companies with exceptional social and environmental performance. Given Monument Valley 3's wide reach on Netflix Games, this contribution could be substantial.
Ustwo's commitment to social and environmental causes is evident in previous titles like Alba: A Wildlife Adventure, and their past collaborations with UK youth charities for Desta: The Memories Between.
A Charitable Contribution
Monument Valley 3's positive reception, including a five-star review from this publication, makes this charitable initiative even more noteworthy. The long-term impact remains to be seen, considering its availability on Netflix Games, a platform without in-app purchases or subscription fees.
However, this suggests ustwo is directly funding the donation, a commendable act of corporate social responsibility. This support, along with the company's public appeal for donations to the IFRC and other organizations, will undoubtedly benefit these vital groups.
