Curaçao Challenge

PR Campaign
Tuesday 9th June, 2026

Football Manager and FIFAe released a custom FM26 save that lets players manage Curaçao through the FIFA World Cup 2026; entrants upload their saves to FIFA.GG and the best run wins a trip to Curaçao and meetings with federation officials, creating a fan-facing competitive stunt tied to the World Cup licence.

Why it worked: It hijacked World Cup news cycles with an official license plus a playable underdog storyline and a tangible prize trip—instant editorial hook.

The lesson: Consider launching a time-boxed, playable challenge tied to a major event, hosted on a public leaderboard, with a headline-grabbing experiential prize.

FAQs

What is this?

Every day, brands launch PR campaigns and the media covers them. We scan thousands of news sources, use AI to spot the campaigns behind the stories, and show you which ones are getting the most traction right now. Think of it as a live leaderboard of what's working in PR.

Where does the data come from?

Finchling is a news monitoring tool that scans thousands of news outlets across the UK, US, Europe and beyond - from national papers to trade press. If it's being published online, we're probably reading it.

Does this track sponsored posts, or is it earned media only?

It's built to only track earned media - we use AI to filter out anything that we think is a sponsored placement.

What does "ranked by coverage" mean?

It's the number of articles. Simple as that. We're not weighting by outlet size or reach - just raw volume. The campaigns at the top are the ones generating the most stories right now.

Why isn't my campaign listed?

If you've launched a PR campaign recently and it's not included in here, and you think it should be - drop us a note and we'll investigate.
