Activizion-Blizzard released a press release earlier today. You can find it at the provided link. The announcement highlights Destiny 2’s collaborations with Rockstar Energy Drink and Pop-Tarts®, offering special promotions for its September 6 launch on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. Additionally, Destiny 2 will be available on PC starting October 24 through Battle.net. The partnership marks a significant expansion for the franchise, building on its status as one of the biggest new console launches ever.
Oh no! Maybe I’ll encounter a poptart in my future! These companies seem so focused on making a profit from their efforts! Q.Q
some titles stand out, like last of us, life is strange, KSP, hollow knight and breath of the wild are my top picks. i think call of duty is just average, and all halo games after the main ones aren’t great. it really depends on how you look at things—“the 90s had better games” is a personal opinion. it looks like someone is stuck in nostalgia, but for every solid game such as castlevania or legend of zeo there are low-quality titles like bubsy 3d. i remember halo 1 and 2 being way better, while the shooters we have aren’t. complaining won’t help much, because game developers aim to earn money and follow trends for profit.
It’s to showcase destiny characters on a Poptart box so customers can see them. People who buy Poptarts will notice it, and possibly choose destiny as well—it’s just typical marketing practice. I don’t understand why anyone would be taken aback; this is common enough.
I understand it might seem odd, but a stylish sci-fi shooter paired with Pop-Tarts doesn’t quite click. Rockstar Energy would be the better match, and Cayde-6 might actually enjoy it.
