The world of video games has become a great asset for brands looking to connect with new audiences through their hobbies. And to this end, Pringles decided to highjack the Twitch stream of a renowned video game influencer, Leah Viathan.

To the surprise of gamers and fans who had their eyes glued to the screen, the zombie Frank decided to escape the video game to enter Leah's room and take the can of Pringles.

But zombie Frank's career does not end with this campaign and, after a series of videos and streams with other influencers such as Doigby, Delux and Reborn_Live, he will be introduced to the West of Dead video game co-created by Pringles from February 10. But this time he will do it with a new purpose. Frank has learned to be more sociable thanks to Pringles and will become a permanent member of the video game, where he will provide tips and advice to players.
