- Fallout Shelter celebrates its 10th anniversary!
- Players can claim complimentary Lunchboxes and special rewards by logging in
- The Fallout mobile spin-off unexpectedly launched back in 2015
It's remarkable to think that a full decade has passed since Fallout Shelter first arrived on our mobile devices. Originally introduced alongside the imminent release of Fallout 4, the game became a standout moment during E3 2015—a reminder of how time flies. In honor of the series' mobile offshoot reaching its ten-year milestone, dedicated players can look forward to a variety of exclusive treats.
For anyone unfamiliar, Fallout Shelter puts you in charge of an underground Vault from the franchise’s iconic universe. As many fans know, these shelters were designed by the fictional Vault-Tec Corporation more as elaborate social experiments than genuine refuges for survivors.
Your role is straightforward: keep your dwellers nourished, hydrated, and content while managing tasks like resource gathering and shelter expansion. This compelling mix of strategy and simulation has captivated both long-time Fallout enthusiasts and new players for years.

In celebration of Fallout Shelter's tenth anniversary, Bethesda is offering a 70% discount on Lunchbox purchases until June 17th. Additionally, from June 16th–17th, players who log in will receive double Lunchboxes, one Pet Carrier, and ten Nuka-Cola Quantums. From June 18th–19th, check in to collect three Lunchboxes, one Mr. Handy, and fifteen Nuka-Cola Quantums. The celebration continues from June 20th–21st with five Lunchboxes, one Pet Carrier, and twenty Nuka-Cola Quantums.
These rewards will be a welcome bonus for veteran fans, though many are still curious about the future of Fallout on mobile—and whether 2025 might bring a fresh, exciting title to the platform.
