Monster Energy Drink Effects?

Provides Stamina Boost

Drinking Monster Energy™ Drink in the private room gives Sam a Stamina Boost when heading out once again for deliveries. The table below describes the degree to which drinking multiple cans of Monster Energy™ Drink can improve Sam's stamina.

How to Use a Monster Energy Drink?

Chug it Down with the Triangle Button

When in the Private Room, you can move the camera around to explore the area. Looking at the table where the drinks are located will give you the option to drink one Monster Energy™ Drink.

Sam's Canteen

A Portable Monster Filter

Sam's Canteen has a filter that converts all liquid that enters it into Monster Energy™ Drink (Don't ask us how it works.)

Restores Lost Stamina

Over the course of your delivery routine, Sam may encounter environmental hazards which can force him to perform actions that will tire him out. The different type of fatigues shown by the Stamina Gauge are explained below.

• Light Blue - Your current Stamina. If this fully depletes while in a raging river or keeping your balance on a slope, Sam will suffer a fall.
• Dark Blue - Your recoverable Stamina. This shows how much stamina Sam will have if he rests and allows the meter to fill.
• Empty - This part of the Stamina Gauge is the section that can be recovered by Sam's canteen.
• Black and White Stripes - Unrecoverable Stamina. The only way to cure this is by going back to your Private Room or resting at a Hot Spring.

Use it From the Shortcuts Menu

Sam's canteen can be used by pressing Left on the directional pad, then pressing the Circle Button.

How to Refill Canteen

Make Contact with any Liquid Substances

Sam's canteen is special in that any liquid which Sam comes in contact with will always slowly fill up the canteen. This includes Timefall, Rivers, and Hot Springs.
