THE CHALLENGE:

how could Pringles rise above the noise and become the preferred snack for gamers?

In a Media First across EMEA, Pringles employed Overwolf's unique technology to reach, engage and reward gamers in the heat of playtime across the UK, France, Germany & Poland.

Leveraging Overwolf’s exclusive Moment-Triggered Ads technology, Pringles was able to insert itself authentically across the most popular titles (Fortnite, Valorant, League of Legends & Apex Legends), triggering custom messages that rewarded gamers in real-time for their achievements.

Pringles message appeared on-screen, celebrating and
rewarding players with in-game rewards.

This innovative approach fostered a deep emotional connection between gamers and Pringles, creating a truly positive value exchange whilst gamers’ were experiencing peak excitement in-game.
