Genshin Impact x McDonald's: A Teyvat Treat
A Culinary Adventure in Teyvat
Genshin Impact is serving up a surprising collaboration! A series of cryptic tweets on X (formerly Twitter) have revealed the upcoming partnership with McDonald's.
The playful exchange began with McDonald's, prompting fans to participate in a "guess the next quest" challenge. Genshin Impact responded with a memorable meme—Paimon sporting a McDonald's hat—adding a layer of playful intrigue.
HoYoverse quickly followed up with its own cryptic message, featuring in-game items whose initials cleverly spelled out "McDonald's." This clever clue fueled fan speculation and excitement.
Further confirming the collaboration, McDonald's social media accounts updated their profiles with Genshin-themed elements, teasing a "new quest" launching on September 17th.
This partnership has clearly been in the works for some time. McDonald's even hinted at the collaboration over a year ago, referencing Fontaine's potential for a drive-thru in a tweet coinciding with Genshin Impact's Version 4.0 release.
Genshin Impact boasts a strong history of successful collaborations, spanning partnerships with major gaming franchises like Horizon: Zero Dawn and real-world brands such as Cadillac. Even KFC in China has previously collaborated, offering unique in-game items and limited-edition merchandise.
This McDonald's collaboration promises significant global reach, unlike the previous KFC partnership which was limited to China. The update to McDonald's US Facebook page suggests a wider international rollout.
Will we be enjoying Teyvat-inspired menu items alongside our Big Macs? The answer will be revealed on September 17th. Stay tuned!
