As the excitement builds for the highly anticipated release of A Minecraft Movie, McDonald's has launched a special promotion featuring themed meals and collectibles that are sure to delight fans of the iconic video game. Starting April 1, 2025, just three days before the film's worldwide debut, customers can enjoy a unique dining experience that combines fast food with the beloved world of Minecraft.
The fast-food giant is offering two distinct meal options: the adult-oriented A Minecraft Movie Meal and the kid-friendly A Minecraft Movie Happy Meal, both designed to enhance the cinematic experience. Each meal comes with a choice of entree, a drink, fries, and a collectible item inspired by the film.
The A Minecraft Movie Meal features a choice between a Big Mac or a 10-piece Chicken McNuggets, accompanied by medium fries and a drink. The meal also includes a limited-edition collectible, which fans can redeem for exclusive digital content in the game. Customers can expect to find one of six unique collectibles, including the Big Mac Crystal, Birdie Wings, Fry Helmet, Grimace Egg, Soda Potion, and Zombie Hamburglar.
Meanwhile, the A Minecraft Movie Happy Meal allows children to choose between a Hamburger or Chicken McNuggets, along with fries, apple slices, and a drink. This meal also comes with a scannable code that unlocks an exclusive digital game where players can embark on their own quest in the world of A Minecraft Movie.
To add a spicy twist to the promotion, McDonald's has introduced the Nether Flame Sauce, a limited-edition condiment that features crushed red pepper, flaming cayenne, and hints of garlic and sweetness. This sauce is designed to complement the McNuggets and adds a fiery kick that fans of the game will appreciate. As described by McDonald's, the sauce is hotter than any other on their menu, making it a must-try for spice lovers.
JJ Healan, McDonald's vice president of marketing, remarked, "Minecraft fans had already created a presence in the Minecraft game long before the opportunity to partner with the new film." This collaboration not only taps into the popularity of the game but also allows fans to engage with the brand in a new and exciting way.
The promotion includes a total of 18 different toys, with 12 film-inspired figurines available in Happy Meals and six collectible items included in the adult meals. Each collectible features a matching card and a redeemable code that unlocks corresponding skins in the game, enhancing the gaming experience for fans.
For those eager to collect all the toys, the adult toys are available in sealed blind boxes, adding an element of surprise to each purchase. In the UK, the Happy Meal toys will be released at a rate of one figure and one block with a figure per week throughout April and early May 2025.
With A Minecraft Movie set to hit theaters on April 4, 2025, McDonald's has perfectly timed this promotion to coincide with the film's release, generating buzz and excitement among fans. The collaboration not only celebrates the film but also acknowledges the longstanding relationship between the fast-food chain and the Minecraft community.
As fans prepare for the movie's premiere, they can indulge in these special meals and collectibles, making their dining experience as immersive as the game itself. Whether you're a fan of the classic Big Mac or looking to try the new Nether Flame Sauce, McDonald's has something for everyone in this exciting promotion.
