Extra Life 2019 is next week!

Team ArenaNet's 2019 event to support Extra Life is in one week, but we're getting a head start #FortheKids! Read on to learn about in-game events and new items in the gem store to support #ExtraLife, starting right now!

How to Donate

To donate to Extra Life now, visit the ArenaNet team page. If you’d like to stream your gameplay to raise funds yourself, you can also sign up on that page and join our team! As soon as we reach our $25,000 USD donation goal, ArenaNet will match it to raise the total to $50,000.

Tyrians Join the Cause

Players who log in to Guild Wars 2 between October 25 and November 4 will automatically receive an achievement and the title “The Extra Life” if they did not already unlock it in 2018.

Once we hit our first fundraising goal of $10,000, an in-game event will begin within the hour and last until 10:00 a.m. Pacific Time (UTC-8) on November 11. While active, the event will award all characters an enhancement:

+5% Magic Find+5% EXP from all sources+3% WvW reward track progress+3% PvP reward track progressEvery $10,000 we raise past the initial goal will grant another stack of the enhancement. For every $15,000 raised, all players will receive 15,000 karma, up to a total of 75,000.

Everyone Is Helping
