Very sad story.

https://ca.ign.com/articles/2019/05...s-wish-to-play-total-war-three-kingdoms-early

I've sent email, reached out to influencers I know, and am using social media to try and get this done.

My little brother was diagnosed with leukemia late last year. He was winning the battle, and just last week we were getting ready for him to have a bone marrow transfusion. Unfortunately this past weekend, the cancer came back with a vengeance, and doctors don't think he will last long.

One of his wishes/goals is to play Total War: Three Kingdoms before he dies. With the doctors not thinking he will survive long, the 24th release date may be to late.

Can anyone help me get this to the developers/publishers to see this post?

Edit 1: For anyone in doubt, I understand why you would feel this way. Here is a link of him currently in the ICU http://imgur.com/dBWKd3X

Edit 2: OMG, u/DogbertCA on here and Grace on twitter have made one kid extremely happy. When I told him the good news, he cried, and couldn't believe this was happening. When I told him who sent it, he was so shocked. I then immediately got kicked out of the room to go home and download it since the internet at the hospital sucks. I should be back there in a hour and he cant wait to play!

He wants to say his thanks to all of you for your support, it means a lot. And from me, I don't know much about this game, just hear him always talking about it. To see the outpouring of support from all of you is truly touching. It means a ton to me and my family, thank you, thank you, thank you!

Edit 3: The response from all of you is incredible. The second I got back to his room he was ready to get playing, and was so excited by the intro and being able to play. Not sure what I can and can't post so I took a picture of him at the logo screen and one of us. He taught me what we had to do, and we won the first battle (thanks to him)! You guys are all amazing! I will myself purchase the game when it comes out, so that I'll be able to cherish this moment forever. Also I will be printing out all of your comments for him. I read some to him and the smiles and laughs he got was tremendous. So again, thank you, all of you!

Not a sad story at all. That's awesome. I hope he really enjoyed himself! And that's really nice of Creative Assembly to do for him.

Very touching. Shows how much video games can mean to someone, because of the positive emotions and good times you can experience with them :)

Glad he got his wish. I don't know anything about this series but the people involved are great for doing this.
