Project: The Unbreakable Controller
Client: Verizon Fios
Agency: McCann, New York
When gamers lag, they get angry. And a lot of times they take that anger out on the closest thing to them: the controller. So to get the attention of laggy gamers and encourage them to switch to Verizon Fios, we created an unbreakable video game controller and used it to troll big name gamers across the country.
Featured on Muse by Clio, Shots, MediaPost, LBB, Shoot, and more.
Case study for the project.
An in-depth look at all of the controller’s rage-resistant features.
We sent the controller to gaming collective FaZe Clan, so they could troll each other for their laggy internet with it.
They created this video and shared it out on their social channels.
And then created cutdowns of the film for OLV.
