Gamers in the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland have a chance to pick up a sweet prize over the next four weeks, as Forza Horizon has teamed up with Krispy Kreme on a rather unusual promotion.
The donut — or rather “doughnut” in the native English — manufacturer has created two special Forza Horizon donut flavors: The Game Changer and The Forza Festival.
In case you’re wondering what Forza Horizon 5 tastes like, the Forza Festival donut has a raspberry and kreme filling, topped with icing and a Forza plaque. The Game Changer also has icing but with an Xbox plaque, and it’s filled with brownie batter.
Each is available in special promotional packs that you can either order as a “Taste Adventure” dozen (including two of each) for home delivery, or in a three-pack (including one of each) at Krispy Kreme kiosks you’ll find dotted around the country — including at Tesco supermarkets.
The packs give players the chance to win an Xbox Series S console, with each carrying a code you can enter on the Krispy Kreme website before the July 3 closing date.
There’s 140 consoles in total on offer — although the contest rules suggest only 12 of those if you’re in Ireland — along with one-month Game Pass Ultimate codes, for new users and only one per person.
It’s a good time to be a British Xbox gamer with a penchant for snack food, as potato chip — or “crisp” in the local tongue — manufacturer Pringles is also offering Xbox Series S consoles with qualifying packs.
This competition is only open to UK entries, with 12 customized Pringles Xbox Series S consoles, ten customized Pringles Xbox wireless controllers, and 83 Razer Kaira Xbox Series headsets available.
Again, Xbox Game Pass Ultimate codes are also available as a consolation prize — guaranteed in every can — but they’re also for new users only.
You have until September 1 to enter pack codes for this competition, and then only a couple of months to lose the weight gained from eating Krispy Kreme and Pringles before Christmas…
