The Genshin Impact McDonald’s collaboration is set to delight fans in the United States this September, bringing together beloved characters from the open-world RPG and the iconic fast-food chain. Running from September 17-29, the collaboration offers exclusive in-game rewards that can be unlocked with the purchase of special promotional meals.
The most important detail for Genshin Impact fans is the exclusive rewards that come with this collaboration. Players who purchase a “Genshin Impact Apple Pie” or a “Genshin Impact Deluxe McCripsy Meal” through the McDonald’s app will receive a variety of in-game items. These include the much-loved Primogems, a special Wind Glider, and a special name card.
Genshin Impact McDonald’s collab offers two exclusive content
The first product of the Genshin Impact McDonald’s collaboration is the “Genshin Impact Apple Pie”. But this isn’t just any apple pie; it comes in a specially designed, limited edition package featuring fan-favorite characters Kaedehara Kazuha and Beidou. When purchased through the McDonald’s app, this pie earns players 40 Primogem, three special Golden Apple Pies, and a “Golden Apple Pie” recipe that can increase a player’s combat power. For those who participated in previous food-related collaborations, this recipe feature can bring back memories of the Pizza Hut Japan collaboration, which also included unique crafting recipes.
The Genshin Impact × McDonald's collaboration will launch in the U.S. on September 17.

The second product of this collaboration is the “Genshin Impact Deluxe McCripsy Meal”. This meal includes a Deluxe McCrispy sandwich, fries, a specially designed Apple Pie, and a drink. But the real reward comes with in-game rewards: Players who purchase this meal will receive a code for the “Wings of Flavors” Wind Glider and a special “Celebration: Crispy and Sweet” Name Card. Unlike Apple Pie, this dish does not come with Primogems, but the Wind Glider and Name Card are unique additions to every traveler’s collection.
The Genshin Impact McDonald’s collaboration is only in the US, but it’s popular worldwide
This Genshin Impact McDonald’s collaboration marks the first time the game has partnered with a food company in the United States. While similar promotions have taken place in other regions, such as the KFC partnership in China, this is a unique opportunity for US players. The promotion is limited to the US for now, with no official word on whether it will be available in other countries. Fans outside the US should follow announcements on HoYolab and Genshin Impact’s social media channels for any updates.
For those living in the US, this is a not-to-be-missed event that combines the excitement of Genshin Impact with the comfort of McDonald’s. Whether you’re a longtime player or new to the game, this collaboration offers something special. Available for a limited time, there’s no better time to treat yourself to a meal and some exclusive in-game rewards. Don’t forget to download the McDonald’s app (iOS & Android) and get ready for an adventure as delicious as it is rewarding.
