Blizzard has made the lives of two dying kids happier, and donated $800K to the charity that made the wishes come true, the Make A Wish Foundation. Blizzard’s donation was 50% of the total sales Blizzard Entertainment accrued during the months of November and December 2010 from selling a special World of Warcraft in-game pet, the Moonkin Hatchling.
On World Wish Day (April 29), Blizzard Entertainment made the wishes of two boys come true by inviting the fans and their families to the company’s office in Irvine, California. According to the report, both children were able to enjoy “an exclusive learning experience with the World of Warcraft development team, including an inside look at how the game is created.”
If that doesn’t make you cry, you have the frozen heart of the Lich King himself.
