After rapidly selling out last month, Bethesda has announced that retailer Target will be receiving a new shipment of Nuka Cola Quantum, the delectable Fallout-themed soft drink created by Jones Soda (as seen in Fallout 3).
If you missed the original announcement, the new drink has been designed to look identical to the one in Fallout 3, and while not healthy, I doubt it's as unhealthy as the one marketed in 2077. For those new to Fallout, Nuka Cola was invented in 2044 and quickly became the drink of choice in America. In 2077, a new version, Nuka Cola Quantum, was invented with twice the calories, twice the carbohydrates, twice the caffeine, and twice the taste. And to give it an extra kick, it included the mildly radioactive strontium isotope (and an 18th fruit flavor – pomegranate). Not only did it boost your energy, but glowed bright blue (perfect since research indicated that blue was the favorite color for 86 out of 100 people polled).
I don't know the exact ingredients of Jones' Nuka Cola Quantum, but I don't think you have to worry about your urine glowing. Then again, I'm sure that's what people who ate Burger King's Black Whopper at Halloween thought also.
In any case, if you find yourself come across a Target while scavenging the wasteland, Nuka Cola Quantum will be available for purchase for $2.99 or free with the purchase of Fallout 4 or the Fallout 4 Season Pass on Xbox One. Bethesda recommends checking first with your local Target for details.
