To make the debut, American Eagle teamed up with [Livetopia](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/winter-wonderland-1), an RPG that exists within the Roblox platform. Together the two companies created a virtual 'American Eagle Members Aways' club that users will be able to enter and explore. Moreover, the club will provide users with access to exclusive digital apparel items that are based directly on the new seasonal collection. In addition, American Eagle has teamed up with [Snapchat](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dress-up) to round out its digital marketing push, utilizing the platform's augmented reality and Marker Tech features to deliver a custom AE lens that atomically opens an AR-powered tennis match.
