The last major story update was in July, which added more Brotherhood of Steel quests. Fallout 76 is more fun if you have friends to play with (and you can likely compete some quests quicker), but it’s still enjoyable alone as well. Meanwhile, Fallout 76 is an online multiplayer game centered in West Virginia, and was one my most-played games last year. Both games are isometric 3D games with (typically) greater difficulty than the modern Fallout titles.įallout 3 is set in the remains of Washington D.C., Fallout New Vegas takes place in Las Vegas and the surrounding areas, and Fallout 4 is set in Boston (known as ‘The Commonwealth’ in the game). Fallout 2 takes place several decades later, and places you in a conflict with the Enclave, a group formed from the remains of the US government that wants to eradicate most of the Wasteland’s population. Fallout 1 is set in southern California in the year 2161, where you are tasked with finding a water chip for the underground vault you live in, which leads you to discover armies of super mutants.
