World of Warcraft pet raises nearly $2 million in charity for Ebola

Blizzard, curing Ebola one in-game pet at a time.

There's plenty of bad news out there; layoffs at Daybreak Game Company, DLC prices and the like, but what about the good news? There's that too, everything needs balance.

Today, there was Persona 4: Dancing All Night character and gameplay spotlights and even a little bit of good news from Blizzard concerning the World of Warcraft in-game pet that was being sold for charity.

Argi, the in-game pet pictured in this article, has raised over $1.9 million USD in support of Ebola relief efforts in Africa by the Red Cross. The original announcement for the pet came in November and the pet officially started to be sold on December 3rd, 2014. Every Argi purchased by December 31, 2014 would have 100% of its cost put towards the relief efforts. 

Blizzard has come out to thank everyone who donated towards the cause on Battle.net.
