     Humble Stand with Ukraine Bundle ends with $20 million raised

Humble's Stand With Ukraine bundle came to a close a few days ago, having raised over $20 million USD for humanitarian relief over its seven day run. The bundle included a pile of books, software, and games, ranging from Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition and Back 4 Blood to smaller greats like Superhot, Skullgirls, and Supraland.

"Our all-for-charity Stand With Ukraine bundle has ended," Humble says in a tweet. "Together, we've raised over $20 million for humanitarian relief efforts in Ukraine! Thank you all for your support!!!" More precisely, as the official site explains, 473,901 bundles were sold through March 25, raising a total of $20,736,539. $4 million of that was raised in the first day alone.

100% of those proceeds have been distributed to Razom for Ukraine, International Rescue Committee, International Medical Corps, and Direct Relief. If you missed out on the bundle and would still like to support the work of these organisations, you can find more info at each of those links.

     Elden Ring How To Beat The Fire Giant FeatThe Fire Giant is the final test before reaching the "point of no return" in Elden Ring. An utterly massive boss, the giant lives up to his name with a wide array of fire-based attacks. He's also quick to use physical attacks such as a shield swipe, a cute roll, and more. This handy guide should help you figure out how to beat the Fire Giant, and hopefully not get burnt or stomped in the process. Note: For more information, check out our Elden Ring guides and features hub.   Elden Ring boss guide – How to beat the Fire Giant The Fire Giant is not an optional boss in Elden Ring. To complete the story, you'll need to go face to face (to… face?) with the enormous brute. He appears in the Mountaintops of the Giants, a place you can reach after clearing out Leyndell, Royal Capital.

     Genshin Impact YelanGenshin Impact is in a constant state of rotating characters as it introduces new ones and brings back old ones. But the next two characters we'll get in Version 2.7 of Genshin Impact are completely new characters, Kuki Shinobu and Yelan. Kuki Shinobu boasts striking green hair, reminding me of all the green-haired characters making their way into League of Legends and Valorant, while Yelan seems more regal in appearance. Kuki Shinobu is officially listed as an Electro character, and some leaks indicate that she'll be a 4-star Sword character. These leaks also indicate that Kuki Shinobu will be a healer, making her the Electro element's first healer support character. In the story, Kuki Shinobu is the Deputy Leader of the Arataki gang, and she's often seen in the lore keeping the gang's namesake, Arataki Itto, in check. This is bound to create some comical interactions between the two, so keep an eye out for that.   Yelan is coming to Genshin Impac...
