Funko FusionThe latest character reveal is KFC’s mascot, founder and real-life human, Colonel Sanders (Colonel Harland David Sanders died over 40 years ago). And if you eat enough KFC chicken, you can get a special version of the late fast-food icon in a mech suit. Really.
Last year we were introduced in Funko Fusiona third-person action game with Funko Pop figures from various franchises and brands, such as The Thing from Another World, Back to the Future, And Jurassic Park. Funko Fusion, created by some former Lego Game developerstarts later this week. And to get people to, uh, let’s say upset KFC and developer 10:10 Games have announced a bizarre crossover for the upcoming game.
On September 9, 10:10 Games and KFC released a short trailer shows Colonel Sanders during his appearance in Funko Fusion. At one point in the trailer, Sanders shoots the alien monster The thing with pieces of fried chicken thrown out of a red and white striped KFC bucket. This is real. This is happening right now. And you can’t stop it.
In a press release Regarding the KFC/Funko crossover, 10:10 Games explained that there will be three versions of Colonel Sanders in the game. The basic white suit version will be included in the base game. The chef outfit variant will be available for free to KFC Rewards members. Finally, if you want to unlock and use the mech suit variant of Colonel Sanders (a real man who once walked this earth), you will need 250 KFC Rewards Points. That’s about $25 worth of chicken.
I’d joke that Sanders would be turning in his grave, but the guy is probably used to it. KFC has shamelessly turned Sanders into a corporate cartoon mascot. Remember the dating game they made? Or the terrible romantic movie? Honestly, compared to this shit that Funko Fusion In comparison, Crossover is almost cute. Almost.
Funko Fusion will be released on September 13th for Xbox Series X/S, PS5 and PC.
