McDonald’s Australia had plans to give away a bunch of custom PS5 controllers, but apparently didn’t ask Sony for permission first.
McDonald’s Australia recently announced plans to give away a bunch of custom PS5 controllers to celebrate its 50th anniversary, but Sony has since stepped in to block the global fast food chain from delivering on its promise. The McDonald’s PS5 controller featured the company’s famous Golden Arches logo on the touchpad, a yellow D-Pad and face buttons, along with a picture of some fries and what appears to be a Big Mac Burger on the handles of the DualSense pad. Unfortunately, it appears that McDonald’s didn’t get permission from Sony before creating the custom controller, and has blocked McDonald’s from giving away any of the garish-looking pads during its ‘Stream Week’ event. In a statement to Press Start, McDonald’s Australia said: “Unfortunately, McDonald’s stream week has been postponed and won’t be going ahead this Sunday.
