12 Best Eas൩ter Eggs And Hidden Details In The Fallout Show

Amazon Prime Video's Fallout show was crafted with the fans in mind, as🍷 all these plentiful Easter eggs demonstrate.

Except, surprise, the n💧ext game you jumped to just slapped you right in the moneymaker with a Fallout Easter egg out of nowhere. It turns out there are plenty of games that reference the beloved post-apocalyptic series in🌞 some way. Whether you want to avoid or seek them out, you'll find them in some surprising places.

11 𝕴 ꦅ The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt

Toss Some Caps To Your Witcher

The Witcher 3 Screenshot Of Geralt Leading A Group Of Pigs

Even in the dark fantasy world of 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, the call of the wasteland is inescapable. It's a subtle reference with a prerequisite, however. First, you need to complete 168澳洲幸运5开奖♋网:The Witcher 3's free D꧋LC mission Fool's Gold, which you♋ were probably 💙going to do anyway, you completionist champion.

Afterwards, take a nice stroll through the village of Lurtch (it's the place with the pigs, you know the one) while listening carefully. Eventually, you'll fi🐟nd a peasant reclining on the side of the road uttering "war... war never changes" in a pleasing baritone. Fallout fans will immediately recognize this line from the beginning of nearly every game in the series.

10 Prey

Still Cleaner Water Than In The Wasteland

The unfortunately closed down Arkane Austin hit it out of the park with its 2017 masterpiece Prey, and apparently the team included a few Fallout fans (or orders from Bethesda). A note describing the procedure for clearing out the eel-filled water tank in the Life Supportඣ section contains a super sneaky Easter egg.

While the note serves as a hint for completing the Drunk Tank mission, if you look at the top of it, you'll see a string of characters including "vault13" which calls back to the Vault from t꧋he original Fallout. Notably, water purification was a major story element of that game.

9 Cyberpunk 207ꦡ7

If Fallout 76 Got A Little Too Immersive

You might have missed this bit while joyriding Claire's frankly perfect truck The Beast around the already Fallout-like badlands in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Cyberpunk 2077. Just southeast of the Biotechnica Flats, you'll find a couple of corpses around a circular latch-looking thing with "101" stamped on it, a reference to 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:the Vault from Fallout 3.

Meanwhile, the archived conversation nearby mentions Albert Cole and Gary Epps, respective nods to a protagonist name option iꦯn the original Fallout and the "GURPS" gameplay s൲ystem that was eventually replaced by SPECIAL. Fans of earlier games in the series will find even more references in that chat.

8 Bo𒆙rderlands 2

Three Dog's Show Would Absolutely Fit Right In On Pandora

As another game heavily featuring Vaults, it's no wonder 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Borderlands 2 contains its own homages to Fallout. On the more subdued side, both Maya and Zero can gain alternate skins in blue and yellow called "Vault Dweller" and "Vault Sꦅuit" for completing the "This is No Time for La🌠zy!" challenge.

Meanwhile, take out the optional boss Assassin Rouf during the Assassinate the Assassins side mission and he might drop the uniqueౠ shotgun Thre Dog. The name references radio host Three Dog from Fallout 3, and even the description calls back to one of his catchphrases you definitely never got tired of.

7 Wolfenstein: The Newဣ Order

It's Probably Not Even Cold, Those Monsters

Wolfenstein the New Order - soda machine with Nuka Cola from Fallout

How about a nice re🦄freshing beverage while you're hanging around 💫a Nazi prison facility? Hey, even famed fascism fighters need to put their legs up and cool off now and then.

Take a look at any of the drink vending machines littered around in 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Wolfenstein: The New Order or its prequel The Old Blood and you'll notice 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Fallout's familiar Nuka-Cola logo. Frankly, it probably would 🍬have felt more on brand for the Nazis to be really into crispy squirrel bits or something similarly nasty.

6 Ghostwire: Tokyo ✱

Somehow Still Less Weird Than Mothership Zeta

Ghostwire Tokyo Fallout 4 vault suit.

We never got to see developer Tango Gameworks achieve its fullest potential due to its unceremonious shutdown by Microsoft, but it made one heck of an impact with its games. This includes supernatural FPS-like 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Ghostwire: Tokyo, which features a solid little Fallout reference 🍌of its own.

After you finish the side quest The Crimson Moon, your reward will be th♑e aptly-named Fallout 4 Vault Suit. According to the description, it "can get you through some tough times." Big deal, so can a pizza. Granted, it's not as easy to wear.

5 Starfield

In Space, No One Can Hear You Gary

It's only natural that 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Starfield would feature at least a few references to fellow Bethesda games, and Fallout 3 made the cut in this particular instance. You'll find yourself in a cloning facility on Charybdis III while taking on the genuinely fascinating Operation Starseed mission, and certain fans may already suspect wh🉐at's coming.

Starfield's unanswered questions▨ range from intentionally vague to d♔ownright confusing.

In the facility, you'll find a taped-up note identifying one cloning subject as "Gary". This of course refers to 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Fallout 3's terrifying Vault 108 which was famously full of clones apparently only capable of saying their own names (three guesses what that name is⛦). Vault 10🧜8 and the year Fallout 3 takes place (2277) also get a reference, in case it wasn't obvious enough.

4 ꧅ Doom 2016 And Doom Eternal

Rip, Tear, Collect, Read

Given the shared Bethesda Softworks publisher, Doom and Fallout were bound to spawn some crossover potential. The 2016 Doom game, for one, includes a Vault-Tec logo on one of the doors on Mars and even lets you find a Fallout-themed collectible little Doom Guy ♓figure.

Its sequel, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Doom Eternal, continues the trend with various magazines and books directly from the Fallout series like The Vault Dweller's Survival Guide in the 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Doom Slayer's cozy Fortress of Doom. Plus,𝔉 keep your eyes peeled and you might even se𝓡e some fuzzy buddies from Fallout 76.

3 𒆙 The Ev💝il Within 2

You've Collected Weirder Things While Running For Your Life

The Evil Within 2 - mysterious bobblehead collectible and reference Easter egg to Fallout

Any self-respecting game that includes optionꦚal collectibles is pretty much obligated to make at least a few of them Easter eggs. If it's a game published by Bethesda, they're pretty much all going to be l✱ike that.

Such is the case with 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Evil Within 2, where the "Mysterious Objects" you find while you frankly probably have more pressing issues at hand all reference another Bethesda release, like Wolfenstein, Prey, and of course𝔍, Fallout. You'll find 🌌the bobblehead between two crates after encountering The Watcher in Chapter 6.

2 Honkai: Star Rail 🅠

The Cosmodyssey Crowd Has Seen Some Stuff

You might be surprised to find a Fallout reference in a game like 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Honkai: Star Rail, but if 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Simpsons can reference Fina🌳l Fantasy 7,ꦍ then nothing is o☂ut of bounds. This one is a sneaky little tidbit in the Cosmodyssey event from version 2.1.

While answering question 7 at the Xianzhou Luofu flagship as part of the event﷽, make sure to choose "Fight! Fight! Fight!" This will prompt t♛he game to reply "War. War never changes," in response to the Fallout series' iconic opening line. Now, if only they could get Ron Perlman to read the line.
