Pizza Hut is diving into the gaming and food fusion world with its latest creation, the PIZZAWRMR. This quirky gadget is designed to fit snugly on top of your PlayStation 5, keeping your pizza deliciously warm as you dive into your favorite games. However, don’t get too excited about rushing to the store to find it; this innovation isn’t for sale or even up for grabs in a contest. Instead, Pizza Hut Canada is sharing the love by allowing fans to download, tweak, and print the 3D files for free once they sign up.
Drawing inspiration from Pizza Hut’s iconic red roof, the PIZZAWRMR opens like a laptop, giving you easy access to your cheesy snacks. It’s designed to accommodate several slices, using the console’s hot exhaust to warm your pizza—merging entertainment with culinary science, according to their marketing folks.
Once signed up with Pizza Hut Canada, users can get their hands not just on the STL files but also on a handy PDF guide, detailing how to put this pizza-warming wonder together. The guide highlights that the design is optimized specifically for a console with rear vents measuring 11.7 x 1.31 inches, so make sure your 3D printer can handle at least a 15 x 15-inch bed. This might mean some printers won’t make the cut unless you chop the model into pieces. Models like the Elegoo Neptune 4 Max, Prusa XL, or maybe an Elegoo Orange Storm Giga might be up to the task.
But before you get too carried away with excitement, safeguard your PlayStation from crumbly disasters by laying out a 34 x 23 x 2.5cm foil tray inside the warmer, as suggested by Pizza Hut. And just a little heads-up—they’ve gone metric here; maybe it’s a nod to their Canadian roots. For the best fit, try using medium slices as you fire up your gaming session; the warmer will get them toasty as the playtime heats up.
This isn’t Pizza Hut’s first foray into blending fast food with gaming culture—remember KFC’s KFConsole in 2020? What started as a light-hearted joke ended up being a real thing, complete with an Intel NUC-powered system and, of course, a section for keeping your fried chicken warm.
Fast food brands trying to appeal to the gaming market isn’t groundbreaking. Still, Pizza Hut’s latest offering certainly adds a delicious spin to keeping gamers engaged and, dare we say, well-fed. For those intrigued, there’s even a livestream coming up on the 29th to showcase the PIZZAWRMR in action, promising to be a treat for the eyes and taste buds.
