The prize would be aFall Guysskin dedicated to the one that pledged the highest donation to gaming accessibility organisation Special Effect. The contest has run its course and Mediatonic have declared a $1 million (£748k) group pledge the winner.

The group snagged the winning pledge in the final moments from YouTuber FGTeeV who had previously promised a $510,000/£381,510 donation. I’m almost inclined to question the sportsmanship of a group donation but heck, it resulted in doubling the amount of money being given to Special Effect which is the real win here.
Special Effect is a UK-based charity organisation that creates and lends specialised gaming controllers to players with physical disabilities. You can find out more about Special Effecton their website.
