McDonald's ​Ireland ​is ​levelling ​up ​with ​the ​ultimate limited ​edition gaming ​collaboration, ​connecting ​fans ​to ​six ​of ​Microsoft's ​most ​recognisable ​gaming ​worlds ​through ​a ​new ​partnership ​across Halo™: ​Campaign ​Evolved, ​Fallout® ​76, ​Forza ​Horizon™ ​6, ​Overwatch®, ​World ​of ​Warcraft® and Candy ​Crush™.


Inspired ​by ​these legendary ​worlds ​of ​gaming, ​the ​menu ​brings ​elements ​from ​players' ​favourite ​franchises ​to ​life, ​giving ​fans ​the ​chance ​to ​taste ​items ​they've ​only ​ever ​encountered ​on ​screen.

Ever ​wanted ​to ​sample ​the ​famous moa dishes ​served ​across ​the Halo™ universe? ​Now ​you ​can ​get ​one ​step ​closer ​as ​McDonald's ​launches Black ​Pepper & Garlic ​McNuggets®, ​inspired ​by ​the ​iconic ​moa ​bird ​that ​has ​appeared ​throughout Halo™, ​6, ​9 ​or ​20 ​pieces ​of ​100% ​chicken ​breast ​meat ​in ​a ​crispy ​coating, ​with ​a ​spicy ​kick ​of ​black ​pepper ​and ​Garlic, ​served ​with ​a ​sweet & sour ​dip. 


Looking ​for ​a ​new ​dip ​to ​try? ​Introducing ​the Fiery ​Buffalo ​Dip, ​perfect ​for ​those ​looking ​to ​heat ​up ​their ​Chicken ​Selects®! ​Fans ​can ​expect ​a ​creamy, ​tangy ​buffalo ​style ​dip ​with ​a ​fiery ​kick ​worthy ​of ​Ragnaros, ​the ​Lord ​of ​Fire ​himself, ​Azeroth ​from World ​of ​Warcraft®.

And ​it ​wouldn't ​be ​a ​McDonald's ​menu ​without ​a ​cheesy side. ​Inspired ​by ​the ​game Fallout® ​76, ​get ​ready ​to ​try ​in-real-life Blamco ​Cheesy ​Potato ​Bites. ​Golden, ​crispy ​potato ​rings ​with ​a ​soft, ​fluffy ​centre, ​filled ​with ​melty cheese ​and ​served ​with ​ketchup ​for ​a ​sweet, ​tangy ​finish.

Get ​one ​step ​closer ​to ​the ​world ​of Forza ​Horizon™ ​6 with ​the ​new Sour Cherry ​Fizz by ​McDonald's ​UK ​and ​Ireland, ​a ​refreshing ​mix ​of ​Sprite® ​Zero ​with ​a ​sugar-free ​sour ​cherry ​flavoured ​syrup, ​served ​over ​ice. ​Inspired ​by ​the ​cherry ​blossom ​season ​featured ​throughout ​the ​world ​of Forza ​Horizon ​6™, ​the ​new Sour ​Cherry ​Fizz combines ​Sprite® ​Zero ​with ​sugar-free ​sour ​cherry ​flavoured ​syrup, ​served ​over ​ice. ​This ​vibrant ​limited-edition ​McCafé® ​drink ​brings ​a ​taste ​of ​the ​game's ​Japanese ​setting ​to ​life.


Sweet! ​Tasty! ​Divine! ​Prepare ​to ​experience ​Candy ​Crush™ ​in-real-life ​with Candy ​Crush™ ​Choco ​McFlurry® - ​soft ​dairy ​ice ​cream, ​swirled ​with ​chocolate ​covered ​biscuit ​with ​an ​indulgent ​chocolate ​sauce. ​A ​colourful ​and ​playful ​dessert ​inspired ​by ​the ​game's ​instantly ​recognisable ​sweets ​and ​icons. 

And ​finally, ​in ​a ​tribute ​to ​Kiriko's ​beloved ​snack ​in Overwatch, the ​sweet ​treat Sugar ​Donut will ​appear ​in ​limited-time ​packaging ​across ​restaurants ​in ​the ​UK ​and ​Ireland.  ​A ​soft ​ring ​donut ​dusted ​in ​sugar; ​it's ​a ​character ​favourite ​and ​a ​must-have.


The ​limited-edition ​menu ​is ​available ​across ​restaurants ​in ​Ireland ​from ​Tuesday, ​25th August ​won't ​be ​around ​forever, ​so ​level ​up ​your ​next ​McDonald's ​order ​before ​its ​game ​over.
