KFC India and Mountain Dew joins hands to create country’s first Gamer's Box

Passionate gamers will vouch for how it’s impossible to tear away from the immersive experience that is gaming! The urgency of your fingers on the controller, that rush of your score rising on the board – nothing should interrupt that – not even meal breaks! Well, Mountain Dew and the big-daddy of finger lickin’ food, KFC, have the perfect gaming set up that will let you refuel and get into show-down mode – without worrying about grubby screens and long breaks!

Presenting the KFC Mountain Dew ‘Gamer’s Box 2.0’ – a convenient, no-mess meal box with built in gaming controls. We would say a gamer’s ultimate fantasy! The snazzy new limited-edition twist to the KFC meal box features inbuilt gaming controls and a slot for your phone. Consumers can pair their phone with the controllers on the meal box through Bluetooth, for a non-stop gaming session, while they enjoy a finger lickin’ good meal and sip on some refreshing Mountain Dew. Because neither gaming nor the Colonel’s chicken should ever stop!
