Rip And Tear Into ‘DOOM’ Bone Vodka
Want to celebrate the Year of DOOM the right way? Bethesda has teamed up with Rebel Distillers to have you covered. Rebel Distillers will be releasing a limited edition Bone Vodka (“made with only the finest ingredients”) for you to enjoy responsibly.
Some of you Fallout 76 fans are probably having flashbacks to the Nuka Dark Rum fiasco. Hence, this Bone Vodka is priced at a more reasonable £45.
How does it taste? The Bone Vodka has an “organic wheat base”, as well as “dry, earthy start on the palate, with wonderful umami and buttery feel on the tongue, rounding off with a smokey and peppery finish which lingers on the palate.”
Did I mention that as part of the process, beef bones are roasted and smoked, their marrow extracted and macerated in a neutral grain alcohol? After which, the spirits are distilled at a low temperature in a vacuum still.
The bummer part (as you might have guessed) is that this limited edition vodka will only ship to the UK, EU and AUS. But, you can sign up on the official site to be notified as to when it will be available elsewhere.
DOOM Eternal is due out on PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch on November 22.
While not quite Snakes on a Plane or Red Eye, co-developers Liquid Static Studio and Snapping Turtle have something darker in mind with their upcoming job-sim horror game, Night Plane. Coming to Steam later this year, the game has you doing the expected work as a flight attendant, but with the added bonus of trying to find demons hiding amongst the passengers.
It’s 1999, and it’s your first day on the job. You must do the usual things as a flight attendant: welcoming passengers aboard, check tickets, and attend to their needs. However, shape-shifting entities may attempt to come aboard disguised as humans. So, your additional job in Night Plane is to question passengers, and find a way to remove any unauthorized non-human visitors from the plane.
That also leads to assisting passengers in unorthodox ways inside the plane, outside the plane, and in places not listed in your training manual. To make things even more complicated, you’ll need to make tough decisions with irreversible consequences. Naturally, the company will not be held accountable for any mistakes you make. You live with them.
Oh, and seeing as this is a plane, you may encounter some turbulence while in flight, along with power failures, lightning strikes and more. All of which, including your decisions, will lead to one of the multiple endings in Night Plane.
If you wish to get in on the fun prior to the game’s release, you can sign up for the playtest via the Steam page.
