To celebrate 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Fallout's 25th anniversary, Bethesda has put together a comprehensive timeline of every single game from the original to 76 to... the pinball spin-off? It's based on Fallout 4 and you can even side with the Minutemen, Railroad, Institute, or Brotherhood of Steel. The goal - collect all those Vault-Tec bobbleheads. It doesn't really have a spot in the timeline, but Bethesda says it's last on the list, so who are we to argue?

, taking place 25 years after the Great War of 2077, which is incidentally what we'll end up calling the internet during 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Cyberpunk's launch in a few years' time. After 76 we have 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:the original game, set in 2161 Southern California. Our quest here is pretty simple, heading out of the vault to find a functioning water chip. Jump ahead to 2241 and we have Fallout 2 where we are tasked with finding a terraforming tool called the GECK. It's a loftier goal, one that introduces us to the Enclave, a surviving shadow of the pre-war government.

Fallout 1 and 2 were top-down, isometric, turn-based RPGs, but when Bethesda took over in 2008, the series shifted to 3D RPG action akin to 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Elder Scrolls with guns. It also continued the original timeline, jumping forward to 2277, a whole two centuries after the Great War. Here, we leave the vault in searc🌱h of our father, a.k.a Liam Neeso🐽n.

The timeline from 1-4 is pretty simple: it goes in order. It's not nearly as complicated as piecing together 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Star Wars' endless stream of comics, shows, movies, audio dramas, novels, and other media. So up next is New Vegas, developed by The Outer Worlds creator Obsidian Entertainment. This takes place a little after 3 in 2281, opening with us, the Courier, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:getting shot in the head, and then 🥀embarking on a whodunit mystery to figure out whodunit. Whodathought?

Then comes Fallout 4 which takes place only six years later in 2287. Rather than looking for dear ol' dad like we were in 3, we're now dear ol' dad (or mum) looking for dear ol' son. And instead of the capital city, we're in the ruins of Boston, AKA the Commonwealth. But there's a lot more than just the main games - there are the spin-offs, even if their status as canon is dubious at best.

Bethesda lists them in order of release, with Tactics: Brotherhood of Steel starting us off. You control a whole squad in the American Midwest, fighting back against the wasteland's nightmarish critters. Then we have Fallout: Brotherhood of Steel, separate from the Tactics version, even if it shares a name. Finally, we have Shelter - the simulation game where you design and operate your own vault - and Pinball. So if you fancy a chronological marathon of Fallout from start to finish, you'll top it all off with a bit of arcade fun. And 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:you've got plenty of time before Fallout 5, since we're waiting on Starfield and The Elder Scrolls 6 first.
