Get ready for a delicious crossover! Genshin Impact and McDonald's are teaming up for a collaboration, hinted at through a series of cryptic tweets. The fast-food giant initiated the playful exchange, prompting fans to decipher a "quest" via a special phone number. Genshin Impact responded with a meme featuring Paimon sporting a McDonald's hat, instantly igniting speculation.
Further fueling the excitement, Genshin Impact's social media teased a "mysterious note" containing in-game item symbols that cleverly spelled out "McDonald's." McDonald's social media profiles then subtly adopted Genshin-themed elements, with their Twitter bio hinting at a "new quest" launching September 17th.
This collaboration appears to have been brewing for some time, with McDonald's subtly hinting at a partnership over a year ago upon the release of Genshin Impact's Version 4.0.
Genshin Impact boasts a strong history of successful collaborations, ranging from gaming titles like Horizon: Zero Dawn to brands such as Cadillac and even KFC in China (which offered exclusive in-game items). This McDonald's partnership, however, could have a much wider reach given that McDonald's US Facebook page has also updated, suggesting a global rollout.
While specific details remain under wraps, the potential for exciting in-game rewards and promotions is significant. The mystery will be solved on September 17th, so stay tuned to discover what tasty treats and in-game items await!
