Another huge surprise from Bethesda this evening during their media briefing; a new mobile based game for iOS Devices called Fallout Shelter was revealed and is available TODAY.
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.
Similar to other world building games, Fallout Shelter has microtransactions built in but unlike other games does not require an internet connection or have any freemium required content. It won't push its paid content onto the player which is a drastic change from anything we've seen out of the freemium game market. Could this spark a better brand of freemium game? Only time will tell but it sounds like Bethesda is off to a great start! An android version is reportedly in the works with details to be released at a later date.
We will have an updated impressions article on Fallout Shelter later in the week from E3 here in Los Angeles!
