Daybreak Games is excited to announce what it has planned for this year’s Extra Life charity fundraiser, including November 2nd’s annual Game Day. Extra Life named Daybreak Games its Partner of the Year Extra Life Award 2024, and the company has already raised more than $40k over its goal of $100k, all of which will support Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals nationwide.
The community is invited to join Daybreak’s Super Team and participate by supporting one of the four studio teams in the spirit of friendly competition. Each game and/or studio team has set its own fundraising goal and incentives with open invitations for their communities to participate. All funds will go directly to each team’s local Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals, where they will be used to support areas of greatest need.
Here’s what each Daybreak Games team has planned for Extra Life this week, including Game Day activities on November 2.
Our goal this year is to cross the $20,000 mark, but we have rewards for everyone in the game when the team crosses other milestones on the way. Curious to know what they are? We’ve got a lineup of brand-new rewards specifically curated for Extra Life 2024, as well as the grand return of several fan favorites! Our community has already unlocked the first three milestone incentives, giving players the Glimmer Wings, Helper’s Halo, Patron’s Plumage, Star Crown, and Angelic Drone Emblem cosmetics. There are five tiers to go, so be sure to join our team and help a great cause.
