Qatar Airways unveiled its first-ever digital destination, ‘QVerse Island’ in Fortnite, one of the world’s most popular digital environments.
QVerse Island reimagines the capital of Qatar, Doha, by offering travellers a new, immersive way to explore the city while engaging with the airline’s brand experience.
The game starts at
Hamad International Airport where players can interact with Sama, Qatar
Airways’ digital cabin crew and explore various locations, including ‘The
ORCHARD’.
Once on the island,
players will take on fun-packed, mission-based challenges guided by Sama,
across Doha’s landmarks and other iconic attractions.
The island is also
studded with hidden spots for players to uncover ‘golden tickets’ that unlock
the chance to win travel rewards and flights.
Sama is a prominent
digital figure across Qatar Airways’ platforms who plays a central role as the
in-world guide in QVerse Island.
Her presence in
Fortnite strengthens the continuity of Qatar Airways’ digital identity that
includes the airline’s immersive web experience, QVerse,
online brand storytelling, experiential activations, and interactive
environments.
By guiding players, Sama is bringing the
airline’s brand to a new digital space.
Travel intent is
increasingly shaped through various digital channels, including social media
platforms and immersive gaming environments.
Qatar Airways, through
the QVerse Island, is extending its presence to such ecosystems to actively
engage with travellers long before they search for their next journey.
By introducing Doha
within Fortnite, the airline is ushering in a new era where virtual adventures
are transformed into tangible travel experiences and rewards. -TradeArabia News Service
