- Monument Valley 3 will allocate 3% of its future profits to charitable causes
- This charitable initiative is scheduled to run for a three-year period
- Ustwo has a history of collaborating with various charitable organizations
Monument Valley 3, the newest installment in ustwo's popular narrative puzzle series, has committed to donating 3% of its profits over the next three years to charity. These funds will support the IFRC (International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies) and their Disaster Response Emergency Fund.
This decision aligns with ustwo's pride in being the first B-corp certified game studio—a designation for companies demonstrating outstanding social and environmental responsibility while using business as a force for good. Given Monument Valley 3's extensive reach through Netflix Games, this initiative could make a substantial impact.
This approach isn't entirely new for ustwo. Previous titles like Alba: A Wildlife Adventure have also emphasized environmental and social themes. The studio previously collaborated with several UK-based youth charities during the launch of Desta: The Memories Between.
A Charitable CommitmentMonument Valley 3 has been exceptionally well-received, including by our publication which awarded it a perfect five-star review. At the same time, it's worth considering the long-term impact of this initiative, particularly since Monument Valley 3 is available through Netflix Games—a platform without additional fees or in-app purchases.
If this means the donations come directly from ustwo's own resources, it would represent an especially commendable gesture. Combined with the company's efforts to encourage donations to the IFRC and other organizations, these actions should provide much-needed support for these important causes.
