Description:
Half of all people under 40 follow at least one travel influencer on Instagram.
So we decided to send some of the biggest travel influencers in the world to visit the fictitious island accessible only in our game.
We hand-selected a squad of global influencers and asked them for never-before-posted footage of them in a tropical location. Warzone in Paradise was composed of 12 sponsored Instagram posts from 12 different influencers. Each video was shot by the influencer over the past year and the gameplay VFX were added a month prior to launch.
All posts were uploaded during the week of the game’s launch generating over 15 million social media impressions.
