Summary
- Popeyes is offering a challenge in Fortnite for real-world rewards until April 13.
- Companies like Nike and Metallica have used Fortnite to promote their products.
- Players can participate by visiting the Murder Mystery Island in Fortnite and sharing a screenshot on Twitter to get a Popeyes coupon.
Popeyes, the popular fried chicken fast-food chain, has entered a fan-favorite Fortnite Creative Islands and is launching a challenge that grants those who participate real-world rewards. Over time, Fortnite has slowly turned into a gaming hub that gives players a lot of choices besides Battle Royale. When Playground mode turned into Creative mode, it changed everything, as it made it possible for players to create and share their own Islands with the rest of the community.
However, players aren't the only ones who have made creations in Fortnite Creative. Brands, artists, and sports teams have used this platform as a way to show what they have to offer to the public, whether it's promoting their name or an upcoming event. For example, Nike created the Airphoria island to promote its cosmetic items when they became available in the Shop. Metallica used it to promote their appearance in the Music Pass. However, the most unexpected Creative Island came from Kamala Harris, who used it to campaign and ask players to go vote.
Rumor: Daft Punk Could Be Reuniting in Fortnite
Notorious defunct electronic group Daft Punk is rumored to be coming to Fortnite in a future update for the game's music mode.
For a limited time, players can visit Popeyes in Fortnite and, if they choose to participate in the Popeyes Pickle Quest, earn coupons that they can use at a real-world Popeyes restaurant. Popeyes didn't make its own island; instead, it collaborated with Good Games, who created the popular Murder Mystery island in Fortnite, and put itself on the map. If gamers want to visit the Popeyes in Fortnite, they have until April 13 to enter the island and try to find it.
How to Participate in the Popeyes Pickle Quest in Fortnite
- Visit the Murder Mystery Island (code: 5253-8468-3364)
- Take a screenshot of your character inside the Popeyes restaurant
- Post it on Twitter using hashtag #PopeyesPickleQuestCoupon and tagging @Popeyes
- Wait for a DM with a coupon code
Popeyes is even hosting a fun event and asking for players to photograph themselves at the virtual restaurant and share it on Twitter in exchange for a Popeyes coupon. Given that pickles are an important part of Popeyes's chicken sandwich, the company is encouraging players who got the Chapter 6 Season 2 Battle Pass to use Big Dill, the pickle skin, in their pictures. However, it is not mandatory, so anyone can participate and get themselves a coupon.
It is awesome to see companies use Fortnite to promote their business and, in return, give players exclusive offers. However, gamers who are interested in participating in the Popeyes Pickle Quest must act fast as, according to the promotional trailer, they only have until April 13 at 11:59 PM EDT to submit their images and then until the following day at the same time to use the coupon on the Popeyes app or website.
