Extra Life 2021

RPGamer is proud to be participating in EXTRA LIFE 2021!  Once again, we’ll be playing games for far too many hours straight to raise money for the Children’s Miracle Network.  This is the 12th year that RPGamer will be participating in Extra Life, and together we’ve raised thousands of dollars with donations from as little as $1 to help sick kids and fund research.  This event is poignant for the staff as we not only play for sick kids, but for our editor-in-chief Michael A. Cunningham, who passed away from cancer in 2018.

WHAT IS EXTRA LIFE?

Extra Life unites thousands of gamers around the world to play games in support of their local Children’s Miracle Network Hospital. Since its inception in 2008, Extra Life has raised more than $40 million for sick and injured kids.

WHEN IS EXTRA LIFE?

Extra Life this year is on November 6th, 2021, but just one day won’t satisfy us, oh no!  We’ll begin on November 5, 2021, at 4pm EST and end on November 8, 2021, at 2am EST — and of course we’re going to stream the whole thing. Make sure you’re following our Twitch channel at https://www.twitch.tv/rpgamer to be notified when the stream team goes live!  We’re also continuing our tradition of loading up Anna Marie with incentives to play certain games — good games? bad games? Dragon Quest III?  Cosmic Star Heroine?  ALL OF THE ABOVE?!  Your donations can make things happen.
