Friendsgaming is described as a "juicy new tradition, inspired by the undeniable way McDonald's just hits different during an intense gaming session" and people are invited to participate by fueling up with one of the fast food chain's Crispy Chicken Sandwiches.

The McDonald's x FaZe Clan collab also introduces special gear such as The Crispy Chicken Sandwich Expansion Pack, complete with custom accessories for gamers of all levels, like the FaZe Clan x McDonald's controller and keyboard decals.
