In the grand scheme of things, video games don't matter in these worryingly uncertain times. Coronavirus has brought the world to a standstill, canceling events around the world and forcing families into isolation to stave off the virus. Efforts to develop a vaccine are in the works, and we'll only draw closer to the day that arrives through charitable donations from the bigger businesses of the world. CD Projekt Red is one such company, who has made a donation of $950,000 to Poland's biggest charity foundation.
Wielka Orkiestra Świątecznej Pomocy welcomed the sum of money, with the Cyberpunk 2077 and The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt developer sharing the following message:
We would also like to thank the entire medical service and everyone involved in the fight against the virus. Risking your own health, you fight for ours every day - your hard work is our inspiration. We also have an appeal to everyone who reads this message: take seriously what is happening around us. Listen to the recommendations of those who know about public health. Stay at home and don't let the virus spread further!
Wise words from the Warsaw-based studio. Are you by any chance replaying The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt while you stay indoors? Share your video gaming plans in the comments below.

If everyone self isolated for 2 weeks we could kick this virus into the grass.
If we do not this could last for years costing lives and money. A complete lockdown for 2 weeks for EVERYBODY is a small price to pay.
“Toss a coin to your Witcher” and he will slay the Coronavirus demon for you.
If only we could all cast Quen, then we could go to the pub again.
@3MonthBeef I choose life over freedom
They want people to go back to work so they can afford Cyberpunk when it is released.
Pretty cool of them though
I'm such a big big big fan of this Netflix series "THE WITCHER".
It is something beyond the way they donates.
Lots of love and well wishes from https://savesbest.co.uk/.
@Number09 Two weeks isn't enough. And complete isolation only works if you've been hoarding food in advance. Like those doomsday preppers.
I think you know the point I am making.
There would be no 1 more happy to be of work for the whole year than me a self confessed Hermit but I miss my homemade Chicken Curry .
Here here! Our Witcher tosses a coin to us!
