Klang Valley denizens are in for an added treat. A distinctive ‘Dew Challenge’ mobile truck will make its rounds across strategic locations, spanning universities, popular shopping hubs, partner outlets, and night markets. This truck will offer a myriad of PUBG-themed activities. Highlights include a Mountain Dew x PUBG custom vending machine, an interactive shooting gallery, and a spirited gaming jam session, all laden with enticing prizes.
An Initiative Beyond Marketing
Amy Gan, the esteemed Vice President of Marketing at Etika, voiced her exhilaration for this edition of the Dew Challenge. She conveyed that it encapsulates Mountain Dew’s earnest pledge to its patrons – to enable them to embrace life authentically. “Post the pandemic, our objective is to morph the virtual into tangible experiences. This venture encourages Malaysians to transcend conventions and embrace unprecedented adventures,” remarked Gan.
Gan further expressed her pride in this groundbreaking collaboration. She said, “This initiative’s magnitude is unprecedented, made feasible owing to our phenomenal team and partners, particularly PUBG. Their shared vision has been instrumental. We beckon everyone, gamers and non-gamers alike, to embark on this monumental journey with us.
