McDonald’s Butcher Shop, WWE x Clash of Clans & e.l.f. AI | Ep. 86

Episode 86 of Brands In Play covers another busy week of brands experimenting with gaming, IRL experiences and new ways to reach audiences.

McDonald’s opens an immersive butcher shop in London to challenge perceptions around its food. WWE returns to Clash of Clans with a new campaign built around finding John Cena’s hidden base, while Dr. Squatch is putting $1 million into a nine-week audience challenge in partnership with creator IShowSpeed.

The NFL partners with Nex Playground to introduce younger players to flag football, while new research looks at whether in-game advertising makes brands more relevant to gamers.
