The Mill+ Goes Over the Top for Mercedes x League of Legends in The Hunt For Glory

Mill+ director Tim Fox and The Mill post teams in three countries pull together for an adventure in design maximalism for this cross up of Mercedes-Benz and the 2023 League of Legends World championships held in Seoul.

Tim Fox: “Blending the cutting-edge with the fantastical, especially with brands of such stature, was an unparalleled experience. While we missed featuring our heroine’s flip-flops, a soaring dragon more than made up for it!”

“As the auto industry continually evolves, embracing the digital age and resonating with the tech-savvy generation becomes imperative. By partnering with gaming giants, Mercedes-Benz cements its place as an industry innovator and a brand that resonates across diverse demographics.”
