The collaboration was teased through playful tweets on X (formerly Twitter). McDonald's initiated the interaction, prompting fans to participate in a "guess the next quest" challenge. Genshin Impact responded with a playful image of Paimon sporting a McDonald's hat, confirming the partnership.

HoYoverse further fueled the excitement with a cryptic post featuring in-game items whose initials cleverly spelled out "McDonald's." Social media profiles for McDonald's were subsequently updated with Genshin-themed elements, culminating in a "new quest" announcement set for September 17th.

This collaboration has been subtly brewing for quite some time. A past tweet from McDonald's, referencing Genshin Impact's Fontaine update with a playful comment about a drive-thru, hints at the long-term planning of this partnership.

Genshin Impact boasts a strong history of successful collaborations, ranging from video game partnerships like Horizon: Zero Dawn to real-world brands such as Cadillac. Even KFC in China has previously collaborated, offering exclusive in-game items.

This McDonald's collaboration has the potential for significant global reach, unlike previous partnerships restricted to specific regions. The update to McDonald's US Facebook page suggests a broader international rollout.

While details remain scarce, the prospect of Genshin Impact-themed items or promotions at McDonald's is thrilling. All will be revealed on September 17th. Stay tuned!
