Rejoice vault dwellers! Wildly popular Bethesda Softworks Video game, Fallout 4 will be available in 8 days, November 10th to be specific, and with it comes all the popular gimmicks and promos you would expect. One particular ploy might just be crazy enough to knock your socks off! Bethesda announced on Twitter Thursday that you will be able to knock back a nice cool Nuka-Cola Quantum from Target as you play the game!

Anyone who has played the game knows Nuka-Cola Quantum as the game's famed drink of choice. The signature nuclear blue glow of the beverage serves as a warning to all would-be drinkers that it is not safe to imbibe. That said, there has been a nuclear holocaust in the Fallout universe and most of the available water is even more radioactive than the soda. So why not?! Drink up!
Of course, as The Verge points out, Jones Soda Company, the drink's manufacturer, will be careful not to make the real deal quite so hazardous to our health. "Soon, you'll be able to live out a little piece of your Fallout dreams - without all of the downsides of a deadly post-apocalyptic society. And it's all thanks to a cross-brand promotion the likes of which vault-dwellers could only dream of." For those of you unfamiliar with Jones, trust me. It is time to try their Root Beer or, if you prefer, Cream Soda. You will not be sorry.
If you have never played the game, or if you simply can't quite recall, Uproxx explains, "Nuka-Cola Quantum is a variety of Nuka-Cola that gets its glow from the small amount of radioactive strontium contained there-in. It's pretty safe to say the store-bought soda will not include that glow-worthy ingredient." Of course, I hope everyone will be sure to shine bright lights through their sodas just to see it sort of glow at least once.
Below, you can also watch the video to hear the story from Fallout: Las Vegas to get the whole Nuka-Cola Scoop. If you haven't already played the game; beware, thar be spoilers here.
Since the drink will be released on the same day as the game, you can head over to Target and buy a bottle of Nuka-Cola Quantum and your own copy of Fallout 4. Just make it quick. They are both likely to sell out fast. In the meantime, sit back, enjoy the game trailer and sip on one of those Root Beers I told you about a little earlier.
