Summary
Xbox has announced a partnership with the breakfast chain IHOP ahead of the release ofIndiana Jones and the Great Circle. Fans of both pancakes and gaming will have a chance to snag some exclusive Xbox-themed prizes and deals, and a limited-timeIndiana Jones and the Great Circlemenu will also be available as part of the partnership.
While not every console has an official breakfast partner, this isn’t the first time these two companies have collaborated. In 2022,IHOP offered a free month of Game Pass Ultimate, among other rewards, for customers who signed up for the pancake house’s loyalty program. Players who missed out on that chance now have another opportunity to get gaming rewards for their breakfast-buying habits.
IHOP willroll out itsIndiana Jones-themed menuon November 18 to kick off its latest deal with Xbox, but the promotion doesn’t stop there.

Potential prizes include a month of Game Pass Ultimate, full game downloads, gaming accessories, and exclusive merchandise.
