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.

Where to find the cartographer in Emerald Stair in Avowed
Environmental shot of Galawains Tusks Slumbering Fields in Avowed.

You will probably have a good grip on all the tips and tricks needed to beat Avowed by the time you reach the second zone, Emerald Stair. However, no matter how many abilities you have or how good your gear is, finding a missing person with just a vague hint never gets any easier. We already helped Sanza find a missing cartographer in Dawntrail, but he has lost another in Emerald Stair and needs us to track them down. Like last time, the Avowed won't tell you where to go so we explored the entire region to show you exactly where to track them down.
Where to find the cartographer in Emerald Stair

The first cartographer quest at least gave you the general direction to find them, but this time we are only given the name of the area within Emerald Stair. The area in question is called Naku Tedek and is the isolated island on the south end of the map.

3 PlayStation Plus games to play this weekend (March 14-16)
The PC version of Ghost of Tsushima Director's Cut.

The beginning of March was light in upcoming PS5 games, but the long-delayed Assassin's Creed Shadows is right around the corner. But we still have an entire weekend to fill before it comes out, which is where your PlayStation Plus subscription pays off. The Essential games for March were incredibly strong, but the back catalogue of Extra and Premium games has the perfect selection to get you excited for all the biggest upcoming video games, like Death Stranding 2. Or, it could be the perfect way to find a fun, bite-sized game to hold you over until next week's releases hit and dominate your time. As always, I have hand-selected only the best games in PlayStation Plus for you to play this weekend.
Ghost of Tsushima: Director's Cut

Even before Shadows was announced, Ghost of Tsushima was touted as being the Japanese AC game that Ubisoft should have made years ago. While that is a reductive way to frame it, there's no denying there are similarities, and the two will be directly compared. Whether you plan on playing Shadows or not, Ghost is a magnificent game that still boasts some of the best graphics on PS5. Exploring the vibrant island of Tsushima as you follow the wind and animals rather than waypoints gives you a deep appreciation for the world you're fighting for. If you missed out on the Director's Cut content, jumping back in for the Iki Island DLC is perhaps the best part of the experience.

3 Xbox Game Pass games to play this weekend (March 14-16)
Assassin's Creed Odyssey review

Game Pass serves many functions as a service. Some use it to play the best Xbox Series X games on release, others lean on it between games, and everything in between. One of our favorite ways to take advantage of the massive Game Pass catalog is in preparation for upcoming Xbox Series X games. Whether it be playing previous games in a series to get caught up, or games in a similar genre to get in the mood, Game Pass has what you're looking for. We have our eye on Assassin's Creed Shadows next week just like you, but what about this weekend? Here are the best Xbox Game Pass games to boot up over the break.
Assassin's Creed Odyssey

All the best Assassin's Creed games are on Game Pass, but we feel Odyssey is the best of them since transitioning into RPGs. Historically, this is the earliest game in the timeline, though that doesn't matter much since there are only loose threads connecting the games at this point. What does matter is how vast and enjoyable a world this is to explore. It isn't quite as bloated as Valhalla and will get you back into the groove of parkouring, stealthing, and fighting all over again. The story here is also one of the best in the series if you have the time to go all the way with it. But even just dabbling in it so you don't get burned out before Shadows is a great way to prepare yourself.
