Last month, EA Sports announced a new global partnership with PepsiCo ahead the release of FC 24.
This is the first real life promo of the new EA SPORTS FC franchise, allowing players to redeem in-game from Pepsi products. Following the separation from the FIFA brand, EA Sports are keen to take advantage of the new found freedom, and the PepsiCo partnership is one of many.
The brand ambassadors for this partnership are Brazil and Real Madrid’s Vini Jr and England and Arsenal’s Leah Williamson that will feature extensively in various upcoming real-life and virtual events.
How To Redeem The Rewards
Pepsi Max products will feature unique codes that customers can use to redeem exclusive items in FC 24 Ultimate Team. The unique code can be found inside the label of ‘Every Pepsi Wins’ promotional products.
Scanning the QR code on the bottles will take customers to their regional Pepsi promo website, where they have to register and link their EA account. Once linked, they can submit the promo code and their exclusive Pepsi Ultimate Team Pack will be available in the Store section of their FC 24 Ultimate Team club.
Each individual can redeem a maximum of x10 unique codes per EA Account.
