11:11 Memories Retold to receive War Child UK DLC

BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment Europe partners with charity for themed content; multiple further pieces of content announced for War Child’s Armistice project

London, 12th October 2018: War Child UK is proud to announce further details around its upcoming Armistice 2018 campaign, in particular a unique partnership with BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment Europe in the form of specially-themed DLC content for the highly anticipated World War I title, 11:11 Memories Retold.
 
Through a series of moving letters, drawings and photographs found throughout the narrative adventure set during World War I, the content of the War Child Charity DLC tells the gripping story of Jack and Eva, two naïve and innocent children drawn into the dramatic events of World War I. The letters are directly inspired by real life stories from the children supported by War Child.
 

 
BANDAI NAMCO Entertainment Europe will be donating 100% of the profits from the DLC to War Child UK in support of its activities working with children and young people affected by war around the world. The DLC will be available worldwide for £2.99 when the title releases on November 9th, 2018, for PlayStation®4, Xbox One and PC.
 
The 11:11 Memories Retold DLC comes as part of Armistice, a wide-ranging fundraising initiative created by War Child UK and it’s US partner Children in Conflict that aims to encourage peaceful gameplay in the month of November, to coincide with Armistice Day on 11th November.

ABOUT WAR CHILD UK
 
War Child is striving for a world where children’s lives are no longer torn apart by war.
 
We protect, educate and stand up for the rights of children caught up in conflict. We aim to reach children as early as possible when conflict breaks out, and stay to support them through their recovery - helping to keep them safe, give them an education, and equip them with skills for the future.
 
We understand children’s needs, respect their rights, and put them at the centre of the solution - from supporting Syrian children to access education, to reintegrating child soldiers in the Central African Republic and promoting justice for young people in detention in Afghanistan. Together with our partners we work in 15 countries across Africa, Asia and the Middle East, and Latin America.
 
We also work with children and young people to change systems and practices that affect them – campaigning on the root causes of conflict and demanding that children are at the centre of humanitarian response.
