Garry's Mod and Rust Prices Are Going Up in Russia to Help Support Ukrainian Charities
Garry’s Mod and Rust Prices are going up in Russia to help support Ukraine.
He is pledged to donate $500,000.
He described it as opportunism among gamers.
Due to the result of sanctions imposed on the country, the value has crashed.
He said, We're raising the price of our games in Russia because the ruble has crashed so much and it's leading to opportunism. We're going to donate any payments from Russia to humanitarian charities helping the Ukrainian people.
War sucks for everyone, so we're also going to donate another $500,000 to help them all out, Newman tweeted.
Garry’s Mod is now ₽750.
Rust is now ₽3,000.
To discourage people from using VPNs to buy the game cheaply, the increase was made.
The Ruble current value is less than one cent now.
He said, my expectation is that things will sell less there—not more.
