Monument Valley 3, the latest installment in ustwo's acclaimed series of narrative puzzlers, is set to allocate 3% of its profits over the next three years to charitable causes. Specifically, these funds will support the International Federation of Red Cross & Red Crescent Societies (IFRC) and their Disaster Response Emergency Fund. This initiative underscores ustwo's commitment to social responsibility, as they are proud to be the first B-corp game studio, a designation for businesses that excel in social and environmental performance.
Given the widespread reach of Monument Valley 3, now available on Netflix Games, this charitable effort could have a substantial impact. Ustwo's history of engaging with social and environmental themes is evident in their previous titles like Alba: A Wildlife Adventure. They have also collaborated with various UK-based youth charities during the launch of Desta: The Memories Between.
The release of Monument Valley 3 has been met with overwhelming acclaim, including a glowing five-star review from us. While the game is available on Netflix Games, which does not charge fees or feature in-app purchases, the charitable contribution will come directly from ustwo. This noble gesture, alongside their efforts to solicit donations for the IFRC and other organizations, is poised to provide crucial support to these groups.
