As someone who has been following the gaming industry for decades, I must say this collaboration between Xbox and IHOP is an unexpected yet delightful twist. Although I was initially skeptical about the combination of video games and breakfast foods, I have to admit that the unique collectible glasses are a hit.
As a tech enthusiast, I was thrilled to learn about the exciting partnership between Xbox and IHOP! This collaboration brings an Indiana Jones-themed food line, complete with exclusive dishes, along with a heap of rewards and prizes for IHOP’s dedicated diners. While I may have jokingly wished for a taste test of their scrumptious-looking French toast, it’s safe to say that receiving a sample on my doorstep is nothing more than wishful thinking!
Indeed, I received the complete five-piece set of collectible glasses from the partnership between IHOP and Xbox. Each glass showcases distinct Xbox artwork created by artist Matt Taylor. These glasses are quite impressive, but what makes them even more special is that you too can get one (alongside other rewards) just by dining at IHOP.
I hesitated taking these glasses out of their boxes, they look so nice
Many companies team up to create diverse products and campaigns, and Xbox isn’t an exception to this trend. It appears that most significant Xbox game releases are accompanied by new collaborations, but the current partnership between Xbox and IHOP is somewhat unique. Along with a novel limited-time breakfast menu inspired by the new Indiana Jones and the Great Circle game, IHOP has also added numerous Xbox sweepstakes, merchandise, and games to its “Stack Market” rewards program.
The heart of this fresh collection revolves around a set of five collectible glasses, individually adorned with distinctive art by the gifted artist Matt Taylor (whose work can be found on Attribute.com). If you’re lucky, Xbox has sent out all five pieces, but anyone stands a chance to acquire several of these magnificent glasses, as long as they’re ready for a tasty stack of pancakes – that is, if they participate in the event.
From the five glasses in the set that includes both Xbox and IHOP items, four of them are designed to represent specific titles from Xbox Game Studios: one for Halo Infinite, another for Sea of Thieves, a third for Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024, and a fourth for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle. The fifth glass, however, showcases both the recognizable Xbox logo and the “Power Your Dreams” slogan, which binds all the art together.
I find the art simply stunning, where each cup has its unique color scheme and personality. Particularly captivating are the Indiana Jones glass and the central Xbox glass. They’re sure to be among the most desirable items during the upcoming Xbox and IHOP collaboration sale.
These cups are also made of glass, indicating good quality, although I’m not certain they can withstand a dishwasher due to the intricate designs on them. I suspect that many who collect these glasses won’t be using them in daily life, much like my own set of Avatar: The Last Airbender collectible glasses remain untouched by dish water.
What you need to know to get your own Xbox x IHOP glasses
In addition to its temporary menu offerings, IHOP has set aside a special area within its Stack Market (a significant aspect of the IHOP rewards system) for Xbox products. Members can cash in their points for entries into sweepstakes for controllers, monitors, creative tools, and even an exclusive IHOP-themed Xbox Series X. However, there’s also an opportunity that doesn’t require luck – you can purchase limited-time Xbox and IHOP gift cards on the IHOP website (IHOP.com), each featuring a unique design.
By accumulating sufficient points in the IHOP rewards program, members can acquire special, limited-edition merchandise such as shirts, hats, mouse pads, Xbox products, and more. This includes subscriptions to Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, digital game codes for Indiana Jones and the Great Circle, Sea of Thieves, and even unique collectible glasses from both IHOP and Xbox in the new Stack Market.
To embark on the path to reaping the benefits of your dreams, simply register for the IHOP Rewards Program at IHOP.com. Rest assured, it’s absolutely free and just requires an email address, password, and your name (though entering your birthday grants you some yearly gifts). Once enrolled, for every $5 spent at IHOP, you’ll receive 1 PanCoin, which serves as the currency in the Stack Market.
At IHOP.com, explore both IHOP and Xbox Stack Market. Use your accumulated PanCoins as you wish. One PanCoin grants you an entry into a sweepstakes of your preference, while 10 PanCoins award a limited-time shirt. With 40 PanCoins, receive a free digital game code, and so forth. To amass these glasses, you’ll need to accumulate 15 PanCoins each. Keep in mind that supplies are scarce, making it challenging to collect all five glasses during the promotion period.
Still, it’s totally free to join, and your PanCoins don’t become useless after the event ends — as long as you eat at IHOP, you can earn free pancakes and other dishes over time. I know I’ll be taking my family to IHOP in the near future to try the new Xbox recipes, so I already signed up with that in mind. I can’t wait too long, though, and neither should you — the Xbox and IHOP event ends on Jan. 5, 2025. You can find out more about the rewards program at IHOP.com.
If pancakes (or collectible glasses) aren’t your thing, though, the game that inspired this collaboration is still here. Indiana Jones and the Great Circle earned top marks in our review, with my colleague Samuel Tolbert concluding, “With cinematic flair straight out of the original movies, MachineGames proves it understands the world’s most iconic Nazi-fighting archeologist. With fun exploration, dangerous puzzles, and a few twists up its sleeves, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle is sure to satisfy the cravings of anyone eager for an old-school adventure.”
Installing Indiana Jones and the Great Circle became a priority for me after learning it’s now playable on Xbox Series X|S, Windows PC, and Xbox Game Pass, prompting me to postpone some of my initial gaming intentions.
