The promotion between Final Fantasy 14 and Mountain Dew is causing excitement in the community. Players are thrilled about the introduction of the character Big Sippin and the ability to obtain armor by purchasing Mountain Dew codes in the game.
What promotion is it about? The promotion is a collaboration between Final Fantasy 14 and the soda manufacturer Mountain Dew, which was announced on X.
On one hand, when purchasing a Mountain Dew code, players can exchange it for armor in the game. But what especially excites the players is the character Big Sippin, introduced by the beverage manufacturer into the game. The background for the advertising campaign is the upcoming Dawntrail expansion.
You can watch the trailer for the new Dawntrail expansion here:
How long do I have to wait for the one they call Big Sippin?
Why are players crowding the digital house? Players seem to love the infiltrated character Big Sippin mostly because of the event. But it’s not just the character itself that excites the players, but also the fact that Big Sippin distributes prizes to the players. Some players log in with the words How long do I have to wait for the one they call Big Sippin?
Although Big Sippin is supposed to be found in various locations, players especially gather in front of his house in the Chalice (Ward 21, Plot 9). Every Friday from 1 PM, he is active on the Hyperion server. In front of his house, the crowd is already waiting for their new favorite player.
Reactions from the Community: The X account of Mountain Dew Gaming also regularly shares tweets from players camping in front of Big Sippin’s house. For instance, the user serenedipitii shares a video on X, showing the community dancing in front of their new favorite player’s house.
The community is excited about the current situation, with some users commenting under the post:

The fact that Big Sippin only has a small house in Goblet is really hilarious and feels just right
- AliSparrow comments on X:
Great party, Big Sippin
