The new season has been available for less than a week and Fortnite players have already donated a staggering amount of money.

Fortnite continues to provide millions of dollars in aid for Ukraine. The latest update from Epic is big, announcing that as of March 25, it has raised over $70 million in aid for charities and groups supporting Ukrainians during the ongoing and horrific Russian invasion of the country.

In a blog post first published on March 20 on the official Epic page and after being updated on March 25, the company explained that players helped raise over $70 million to be used for supporting people in Ukraine during the war. This is part of Epic's ongoing plans to donate proceeds from all "real money" purchases made in Fortnite from March 20 to April 3.

Epic had already raised over $35 million to help Ukraine in just one day using Fortnite. It should be noted that Xbox is also donating all proceeds made on the Xbox version of Fortnite for the next two weeks.
