'Fallout Shelter' (ALL) Adds Quests, New Combat System, Also Coming To PC - Screens

by Rainier on June 12, 2016 @ 11:11 p.m. PDT

Fallout Shelter puts you in control of a state-of-the-art underground Vault from Vault-Tec. Build the perfect Vault, keep your Dwellers happy, and protect them from the dangers of the Wasteland.

Vault-Tec has provided the tools, but the rest is up to you. What are you waiting for? Get started building your Vault today for free.

In Update 1.6, Quests are coming to Fallout Shelter! Overseers will be able to take control of their Dwellers and travel to new locations like abandoned buildings and decrepit Vaults, or even familiar spots like Fallout 4’s Red Rocket Fuel Stop and Super Duper Mart. With this all-new Quest system, you can now assemble a group of Dwellers to take on challenges outside of the Vault, uncover legendary loot, and face off against new enemies like Radscorpions, Ghouls and powerful bosses as you traverse the Wasteland.

The new combat system will grant you greater control over your Dwellers’ actions in a fight, allowing you to direct their attacks. Select the enemy you want your Dweller to attack and even play a quick mini-game for a critical hit.

If your Dwellers are taking too long to return to the Vault after a quest, you can call them back immediately with a nice, refreshing Nuka-Cola Quantum. And if you need some extra help getting your Vault going, you can purchase a starter pack, which includes a special Dweller and in-game resources.

Update 1.6 will be available for download next month.

And now Bethesda Game Studios is bringing Fallout Shelter to a brand new audience (and a way bigger screen) on PC as a free download on Bethesda.net. Whether you’re a seasoned Overseer or just starting out, the PC version offers the full Fallout Shelter experience, complete with every update – including Update 1.6. We’ll have more details on the PC version soon.


Key Features:

  • Build the Perfect Vault: Create a brighter future…underground! Select from a variety of modern-day rooms to turn an excavation beneath 2,000 feet of bedrock into the very picture of Vault Life.
  • Oversee a Thriving Community: Get to know your Dwellers and lead them to happiness. Find their ideal jobs and watch them flourish. Provide them with outfits, weapons, and training to improve their abilities.

  • Explore the Wasteland: Send Dwellers aboveground to explore the blasted surface left behind and seek adventure, handy survival loot, or unspeakable death. Find new armor and weapons, gain experience, and earn Caps! But don’t let them die!
  • Protect Your Vault: From time to time, idyllic Vault life may be disrupted by the dangers of post-nuclear life. Prepare your Dwellers to protect against threats from the outside…and within.
