Pepsi Nex is a drink. Dynasty Warriors NEXT is a videogame. This is how great marketing is born.
This beautiful wallpaper, showing Lu Bu drowning his sorrows with some tantalizing Pepsi flavor, is available from Pepsi’s Japanese site. It’s already been made my desktop wallpaper, because it’s basically the greatest image known to man.
What I love most is just how intense Lu Bu looks. He’s drinking that Pepsi like a motherf*cker and he doesn’t care who knows it!
Sadly, there are no in-game tie-ins as of yet. This is the first time I’d actually want shameless in-game advertising, because it would be the most gloriously stupid thing on Earth. Parasitic ad campaigns are perfectly fine if they’re utterly ridiculous.
[Thanks to the person who showed me this, but who I forgot because I am terrible]
