The biggest difference between the first Fallout Shelter title and its sequel is the introduction of gacha-style mechanics. The game was originally developed by Shengqu Games and published in China in 2019. Speculation that a Western port of the game was imminent began earlier this year after an English language version of Fallout Shelter Online was discovered.

The new free-to-play mobile title sees players acting as the Overseer for their own vault, before being given the freedom to customs, construct and upgrade the locations via resources found in the Wasteland.Īlongside the vault management feature that the series is known for, players are also able to recruit famous heroes from the Fallout series, build adventure teams, and take on familiar foes. Original Story: Bethesda Studios and Gaea Mobile have soft-launched Fallout Shelter Online, the official sequel to Fallout Shelter.

'Right now we don't have any news in terms of this game's release in the West,' stated the ZeniMax representative.Īdditionally, it was confirmed that the English language trailer that helped fuel speculation that a Western launch was on the horizon was simply for 'English speakers in Asian regions.'

Update: Fallout Shelter Online is currently not planned to arrive in the West, a representative from ZeniMax Asia(parent company of Bethesda) confirmed to.
