Destiny Red Bull will cost $5.33 for Two 12oz cans

Red Bull will soon sell Destiny edition cans exclusively at 7-Eleven.

Prices have been revealed for these Red Bull cans. One can will cost $3.49 or a deal for two cans can be had for $5.33.

Red Bull cans will be phased into the current stock from June 22-30 and by July 1, all Red Bull cans should be the Destiny limited edition cans.

You'll have to buy a can of Red Bull to unlock a quest in Destiny's The Taken King DLC

Destiny, a game developed by Bungie and published by Activision recently announced their next DLC named The Taken King. Players who purchased the first two DLC will have to rebuy them in order to get the Legendary edition of the DLC if they want new emotes. The emotes have not been revealed but most are expecting new dance moves.

Today, Activision has announced a partnership with Red Bull.  Players now will have to buy cans of Red Bull if they want to unlock an "Epic New Quest" in The Taken King.  The Red Bull can will also come with a bonus XP code for a 50% gain in xp for a 30 minute period.  XP codes can be used starting July 1, 2015.  The new quest will be available once The Taken King is released on September 15, 2015.

Players who thought they needed to pay only $40 or $80 for the new DLC to get the complete update will be very disappointed.  The Red Bull Quest is only the first partnership announced by Activision to generate more income from their Destiny franchise.  Can we expect more partnership announcements? Based of Activision's other properties, we think there will soon be a Doritos munch for more fun quest and a Mountain Dew climb the King's Throne quest with bonus super buffs.

The Destiny Edition Red Bull cans are sold exclusively at 7-Eleven in July.

More information on how to redeem the code can be found at Destiny Red Bull Quest.

PC Gaming Show event during E3 2015 will include Microsoft

PC Gamer has revealed that Microsoft will be attending the PC Gaming Show.

Why will Microsoft attend this event when they have their own Xbox E3 2015 Event? The reason is because of Windows 10.

The aim of Windows 10 is to unify all Microsoft products such as Windows Phone, Xbox One, Holo Lens, and Surface by using one code base. This close integration would mean an Xbox One app would be on the desktop or laptop making some Xbox One functions seamless to use across multiple Microsoft products.

"For us, the PC Gaming Show is the ideal place to speak directly to PC gamers, and it’s a great time to talk about Windows 10 - the best operating system we've ever created for gamers on PCs,” Microsoft's Head of Xbox Phil Spencer said. “With Windows 10, we’re bringing the best of Xbox with the best of Windows gaming, including Xbox Live and the new Xbox app, Game DVR for nearly every game, and DirectX 12 for better gaming graphics and performance.” - PC Gamer

Hosted by Sean ‘Day[9]’ Plott, the PC Gaming Show will take place at the Belasco Theater in Los Angeles on Tuesday, June 16, 2015. In partnership with Twitch, the PC Gaming Show will be streamed live, and feature new game reveals, updates on beloved series, and perspectives from key PC developers.
