Warframe’s Developer Partners With Make-A-Wish To Feature Child In Upcoming Expansion

This year, AbleGamers is Digital Extremes' overseas choice and SickKids is its local charity choice. Digital Extremes is donating $100,000 CAD to each. Additionally, outside of these two charity donations, Digital Extremes also involved itself with Make-A-Wish this year.

With Make-A-Wish, Digital Extremes has granted a child's wish to become a video game voice actor. James, a 16-year-old with Spina Bifida, is familiar with Warframe due to his older brother being a Tenno--the affectionate name designated to the players of Warframe. Kevin Lim, a voice actor for the Warframe character Bombastine, was how Digital Extremes initially discovered James' wish.

"Through being involved with [Make-A-Wish, Lim] got wind of a boy named James–whose wish was to be a voice in a video game," community manager Megan Everett said.
