In light of the recent events in Ukraine, we wanted to express our deepest sympathies and solidarity with the victims of this conflict as well as all Ukrainians. We believe that wars belong in the realm of video games, not in real life. Nobody should be scared for their life, family or home. The situation is dramatic, and we can only hope that peace will come soon.
For years we’ve been traveling to Ukraine and met a lot of amazing people there. During the development of our game, we became very close to Ukrainians, their history and culture. The dreadful act of aggression towards our neighbor that we’ve been witnessing since last week simply broke our hearts. We couldn’t just stand aside and watch so we decided to do something that matters and not to leave our friends all by themselves. We hope you join us!
In this perilous time everyone should help as much as they can to support Ukraine and its people. Apart from voicing your support, there are other ways to help the victims suffering from war atrocities.
Income from the sale of the game for the Ukrainian Red Cross
We decided to donate the weekly income from Chernobylite sales to the Ukrainian Red Cross to help the victims of the conflict. This goes for both PC (Steam, Gog, Epic Games Store) and consoles.
The charity sales takes place until Sunday, March 6.
Fundraising for charity
Currently, there are many fundraising campaigns for charity. Look around in your immediate area to see which institutions can provide support. We also encourage you to follow the links below and make a donation for the good cause:

Donations for those in need
There are many charities and fundraising activities that you can get involved with. You can help, even from far away, for example by collecting donations that will be sent abroad to Ukraine. The Ukrainian citizens may soon be facing a catastrophic humanitarian situation due to the limited access to medical aid and lack of running water in besieged cities. That’s why it’s important to get involved now and do whatever humanly possible to support them. Every little helps. Let's show our solidarity together. Every action counts. Even the smallest one.
