Customers overseas can nab a Genshin Collaboration Magician Pack featuring Lyney and Lynette, two characters from Fontaine.

Of course, in-game rewards include some fried chicken, but that is not all. The KFC meal will also gift customers a code that unlocks the Wings of Feasting glider. The wing set combines Lyney's outfit with KFC and its color scheme. And outside of the game, the KFC combo comes complete with commemorative cards. Lyney and Lynette are center stage with these cards, and they are decked out in KFC gear.
