Released in October 2022, the "BIG SHOCK CALL OF DUTY Modern Warfare II" is a limited edition product created in collaboration with CALL OF DUTY Modern Warfare II.

When I discovered it during my trip to the Czech Republic in 2023, the impact was unlike any energy drink I had ever encountered. This is an experience you can only have by being there in person. Now, let's dive into what it tastes like. Here's my detailed review.

In 2001, while living in the United States, I encountered energy drinks through the dance scene and was deeply impressed. After returning to Japan, I found that energy drinks were considered novelty beverages, so I established a comprehensive website in 2013 to share the true appeal of energy drinks. As an energy drink enthusiast, I began drinking them seriously again, collecting over 8,000 varieties of energy drinks from various countries. I am also active as a critic and expert, receiving media interviews.

Flavor of BIG SHOCK CALL OF DUTY Modern Warfare II

Upon opening the can, a fresh citrus fruit aroma bursts out. The liquid itself, unlike the fluorescent green of the can, is a pale lime green. Now, let's take a sip.

When you take a sip, the taste is a light citrus fruit flavor with a smooth texture. It has a flavor profile similar to a mix of lime and floral pear, and it is not as bold or punchy as the can design might suggest.

According to BIG SHOCK’s official description, the flavor is “Yuzu & Quince.”

Since many of the BIG SHOCK limited-edition series after 2020 are zero-sugar, this BIG SHOCK CoD MW2 also comes with zero sugar. As a result, the taste is light, almost like a flavored water with a smooth drinkability.

This light flavor may be a matter of preference, and when I tried it with ice, the citrus flavor faded too much, leaving only a crisp, pear-like taste that was not sweet.

If the flavoring had been a little stronger, and the yuzu fruitiness more realistic, I think it could have been enjoyable even with ice. Personally, my overall rating is on the lower side.

The design uses a matte black texture with high contrast yellow-green and white, and the impact of the exterior is intensified by the illustrations of CoD MW2. It's a truly cool design that you don't see every day.

Additionally, the yellow-green seamlessly extends from the top of the can all the way to the color top.

The can top features a surprising design with CoD MW2 prints. I’ve never seen an energy drink with such extensive prints before.

The intricate design that even extends to the inside of the can top is impressive. I didn’t notice the special design until I actually picked it up in Prague, but the impact at the store was unmatched compared to other energy drinks I’ve seen.

Instead of the usual vertical display, this horizontal display is unusual, but it actually highlights the design of BIG SHOCK CoD MW2... It's really amazing.
