While I'm sure many of you are counting down the days until Fallout 4, Bethesda hasn't forgotten about those of you continuing to thrive underground. Update 1.2 for the wildly popular free-to-play mobile game Fallout Shelter has been released, and with it comes an assortment of new features, content, and fixes.
Among the features is the arrival of a mysterious new stranger who can reward you with additional bottlecaps, a more difficult Survival Mode, the ability to save your Vault to the "cloud." Exclusively on the App Store for iOS, you can now get the all-new legendary character Piper from Fallout 4 and five free lunchboxes. Check out all that's new in the video above, and read below for Bethesda's official patch notes.
- New Vault-Tec network protocols are finally in place. Now you can save your Vault to the “cloud,” (no moisture condenser necessary!) and continue any Vault experiment on all of your devices.
- Some Dwellers are reporting sightings of a mysterious individual in Vaults around the Wasteland. Vault-Tec is offering a bottle cap reward for any positive identification!
- Faced all the challenges the “normal” Vault simulation can provide? Introducing Survival Mode! More danger, More glory. Make Vault-Tec proud!
- New Vault-Tec directive – Dwellers have been given authorization to scavenge equipment from dead Raiders. Gear up!
- Are you an experienced Overseer who has already undergone Vault operational training? Now you can skip the tutorial!
- In an effort to assist Overseers in running their Vaults more efficiently, Vault-Tec has added a statistics page to the Vault Dweller’s Survival Guide (VDSG).
- Support added for Russian-speaking Overseers.
- Continued general maintenance to the Vault simulation. Because when you speak, Vault-Tec listens!
- Available exclusively on the App Store, all new legendary character Piper from Fallout 4 and five FREE lunchboxes!
