Burger King restaurants are teaming up with Activision’s newest game – Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, as well as Grubhub to bring fans bonus in-game content and experiences.

One Burger King restaurant in Los Angeles transformed into a real-life version of the Call of Duty Burger Town restaurant. Within the restaurant, guests found a gaming hub set up by Activision for visitors to play the new Call of Duty: Modern Warfare game. The King of Burgers and the Kings of Call of Duty defend their throne of Burger Town and welcome guests that are up for a challenge. Challengers were invited to play Modern Warfare against the King and professional Call of Duty players Scump and FaZe Apex for a chance to win free Whopper sandwiches for 15 years.

For those not in the Los Angeles area, Grubhub promoted select Burger King restaurants on its app in 16 cities as “Burger Town presented by Burger King” restaurants. The rebranded “Burger Town” menu included Call of Duty themed BK Meals with the opportunity to get a code to unlock bonus in game content. The Burger Town menu was available exclusively via Grubhub delivery.

To get a code, simply purchase Burger King on Grubhub and use code ‘BKCALLOFDUTY’ at checkout. For the first delivery purchase, guests receive a code to unlock a bonus in-game “Burger Town Emblem.” On the second delivery purchase, guests will receive a code to unlock a “Burger Town Calling Card.” On the third delivery purchase, guests will receive a code to unlock the “Burger Town Bubby Weapon Charm.” Orders over $10 will include free delivery through 11/6.
