Fallout Show Gives Gamers a Reason to Revisit Fallout Shelter

Fallout Shelter has released a brand-new update based on the Fallout TV show, giving fans of the series a reason to revisit the mobile title. Fallout Shelter sees players take charge of their very own Vault, and now, there's a lot more content available in the game.

Fallout Shelter was first released in June 2015, just a few months prior to the release of Fallout 4.

As confirmed by Bethesda, Fallout Shelter has received a huge update based on the Fallout TV series, adding a ton of new content from the show. The number of additions is huge, with an entire new questline featuring eight quests, new locations, as well as six unlockable vault dwellers, including Lucy and The Ghoul. It doesn't stop there, either, with new themes, weapons, and outfits seen in the critically acclaimed Fallout show. This includes a pre-war cowboy outfit, The Ghoul's revolver, and a wedding dress with a bandolier. On top of all of this, players can also claim a Vault 33 jumpsuit for free until May 7.

Fallout Shelter isn't the only title in the series to receive an update during the release period of the TV adaptation. It was recently revealed that a huge Fallout 4 update is coming on April 25, finally bringing the game to current-gen consoles, alongside a ton of new Creation Club items for free. Unfortunately, none of the items seem to be related to the Fallout TV show, but no doubt this is something that modders could tackle later down the line in the PC version of the game.

The Fallout franchise is in a great spot at the moment. Fans seem to
