At Virtuos, we believe that it is our responsibility to give back to the communities around us.
As a game developer with a global reach, our purpose is not just about making the very best AAA games. Aside from being pure entertainment, games can serve as inspiration and encouragement to become better versions of ourselves.
Whether it’s about taking care of our environment, empowering the less fortunate to pursue their dreams, or simply building an inclusive society, it is about being a team player as part of a greater whole. And this is aligned to our new purpose on making games better, together.
Take a look at the meaningful CSR activities we performed in 2020.
