Square Enix Teams With Make A Wish Foundation

Square Enix, Inc., publisher of Square Enix interactive entertainment products in the Americas, announced a sponsorship with Make-A-Wish America that will bring the joy of a wish come true for kids with life-threatening medical conditions across the country.

“It’s incredibly important for us to give back to those in need,” said Mike Sherlock, Chief Operating Officer of Square Enix, Inc. “We’re so proud to be working alongside the amazing Make-A-Wish team to help wish kids’ wishes become reality. We can’t wait to get started.”

Inspired by its upcoming game Final Fantasy XV, which is set in a fantastical world of intrigue and wonder but grounded in reality, Square Enix plans to flip the script with this partnership, transforming wish kids’ fantasies into reality. Square Enix will launch the initiative alongside Make-A-Wish this September. The two companies will share additional details in the coming weeks, as well as the inspiring stories of the kids they have the great joy to impact.

“We are excited for the opportunity to partner with Square Enix on their launch of Final Fantasy XV this September,” said David Williams, president and CEO of Make-A-Wish America. “We are honored that Square Enix chose to expand their approach of making dreams come true in the gaming world to now making wishes come true for children facing serious illnesses.”
