Target, Bethesda, and Soda Jones partner to create Nuka Cola Quantum

Bethesda is bringing one of its most iconic drinks from the Fallout series, Nuka Cola Quantum, into the real world, minus the radiation and AP points.

For Fallout 3 completionists, we don’t need to explain Nuka Cola Quantum. There is a whole mission in the game dedicated to finding 30 bottles of the bright-blue drink in the Capital Wasteland for Nuka Cola’s number one fan, Sierra Petrovita.

North American soft drink company Soda Jones will be making the Nuka Cola Quantum, which goes on sale exclusively in Target stores. Fallout 4 will also be available on that date, giving you the perfect excuse to buy it on day one and not feel like you’re making a bad decision.

Soda Jones offers a Berry Lemonade drink that has the same color as Nuka Cola Quantum. Even though it hasn’t been confirmed, we suspect it is a repackage, though like Carlsberg UK’s Fallout Beer, we expect it will be much more expensive.

With all of these promotions for Fallout 4, it is only a matter of time before Kellogg’s announces plans to stock Sugar Bombs as a cereal or OxiClean reveals plans to stock Abraxo Cleaner. Heck, it wouldn’t be too surprising to see a miniature Mister Handy robot drone, considering there is already a BB-8 miniature droid available.

Bethesda confirmed last week that Fallout 4 development has finished, and the studio is now working on final bug fixes before launch. A season pass is already available for $30, despite the lack of a release of information on how many DLC packages to expect.

What we do know is that Fallout 4 will be much bigger than Fallout 3 and New Vegas, will feature new crafting options for homes and weapons, and both PC and Xbox One buyers will receive mod support. Most of the trailers for the game seem to point to a more open and fun world compared to previous installments, which were devoid of a strong main story line.

Volgarr the Viking 2 will take you back to your Ghosts ‘n Goblins days

Developer Digital Eclipse is working on a surprising project: Volgarr the Viking 2. The 2D retro sequel will launch on August 6 for PlayStation 4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, Nintendo Switch, and PC.

The news is an out of left field reveal. The first Volgarr the Viking game released in 2013 and was made as an ode to 1080s classics like Ghosts 'n Goblins. Despite being a small release, it sold over 1 million copies over the past decade. As revealed during today's Guerrilla Collective stream, the series is coming back with a new sequel by Digital Eclipse, the team behind this year's Llamasoft: The Jeff Minter Story.

3 Days of Play PS Plus games to try this weekend (June 7-9)
Key art for Streets of Rage 4.

June 2024 is shaping up to be a pretty great month for PlayStation players. Not only are we coming off an entertaining State of Play showcase, but a new Days of Play initiative surrounding all the video game showcases this month is bringing a lot of new PS Plus additions with it. Many of those games hit PS Plus this week, and three in particular stand out to us.

For owners of Sony's oft-neglected PlayStation VR2, the first game is one of its rare exclusives that take full advantage of the headset's eye-tracking by seeing how often players blink. The next is a new PS Plus Essential game that's a revival of Sega's classic beat-'em-up series for the modern gaming era. Finally, the last title is an atmospheric and eerie fishing game that should entice fans of Lovecraftian horror.

3 first-party Xbox Game Pass games to try this weekend (June 7-9)
Gears 5 Kait Hero Close Up

Microsoft will hold an Xbox Games Showcase and Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 Direct. this Sunday. These shows will provide a much better idea of what to expect from Xbox over the course of the next year or two. That's really needed right now, as Microsoft has struggled to keep online discussions around Xbox positive as it went multiplatform with some games, laid off thousands of developers, and outright shut down the developers of Hi-Fi Rush and Redfall. Based on leaks and my personal expectations for the showcase, there are three games you can play on Xbox Game Pass this weekend to prepare for the event.

The first is the latest first-person shooter in a long-running series by id Software that might be getting a medieval-set spinoff. After that, we have the fifth entry in a sci-fi Xbox series that still looks fantastic on Xbox Series X/S even though it came out in 2019. Finally, you can prepare for Avowed with the latest RPG from Obsidian Entertainment, a satirical sci-fi game where player choice is critical.
