KFC - Killer Discounts
Campaign: Killer Discounts
Brand: KFC
Client: US FOOD NETWORK SA
Lead Agency: McCann Worldgroup România
Contributing Agencies: UM România, Golin
Public Case Summary:
Killer Discounts was an interactive, immersive activation taking place directly in Fortnite: one of the most popular battle-royale games. It further expanded KFC’s strategy in entertainment, reaching a strategic community, hard to reach and engage by classic advertising. The campaign mechanics didn’t disrupt the game dynamics but complemented them. Gamers hunted popular streamers, which had an in-game alias equivalent to the discount offered if eliminated. The experience reached #7 in YouTube’s top-trending videos, with 3-times more views than the Romanian eSports League final and with more than 11,000 players signing-up.
