The franchise fallout you are in luck. Last Friday, April 12, Prime Video premiered the series of falloutset in the post-apocalyptic world of the popular video game franchise of the same name and, on the rebound, the Bethesda video games that have served as inspiration for the series are experiencing a relaunch, a kind of new youth.
It is common for a successful series to attract new players to the titles from which it is inspired. It happened with The Witcher – despite being a fairly bad adaptation –, it happened with Cyberpunk: Edgerunners and with The Last of Us. This weekend, the number of computer players of all the games in the franchise fallout has been triggered. Fallout 76the latest installment, has broken its historical record with almost 40,000 simultaneous players. In the case of Fallout 4the figure rises to 83,491 and Fallout: New Vegas has reached almost 20,000.
If you have seen the series fallout and you are curious about games, in this article we recommend the four best options to fully enter the post-apocalyptic wasteland of Bethesda.
Fallout: A Post Nuclear Role Playing Game

The first recommendation is the first game of falloutthe original from 1997. It is a role-playing game with an isometric view, many dialogues and a fairly high difficulty (or level of demand). It is the origin of the franchise, although it is probably not the most friendly delivery for a first contact. We leave this for the most hardcore users or those who want to know the history of fallout from the beginning.
Fallout 76

Fallout 76 is probably just the opposite of the original game. In this case it is an online multiplayer game, an experience focused on the social component, although maintaining the role-playing elements that characterize the franchise. Fallout 76 It was published in November 2018 and quickly became an absolute failure, with very bad reviews from the public and the press.
It was an empty game and its quality was far from what would be expected for a game in this franchise. But now, in the middle of 2024, this is different. Over the last few years, Bethesda has been updating Fallout 76 and has filled it with content. Now it is a perfectly enjoyable game both cooperatively with friends and in single player mode.
The wilderness of Appalachia is dense and full of mysteries and stories to discover. Now, at last, one can consider Fallout 76 a game worthy of carrying this name. In addition, to mark the premiere of the series, the game can be tried for free until April 18. And it is also available on Xbox Game Pass.
Fallout 4

Fallout 4 It is the last great classic installment of the franchise. It was released on PS4, Xbox One and PC in November 2015 and offered the typical experience of a Bethesda role-playing game. The main reason why it is worth returning now – in addition to satisfying the annoyance that the series may have left you – is that, on April 25, Fallout 4 will receive an update for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
This means that Fallout 4 upgrades to current-gen consoles with many quality-of-life improvements, 60 frames per second, and the ability to choose between Quality mode and Performance mode. It will be the definitive version of the game.
Fallout: New Vegas

For many, Fallout: New Vegas It is the best installment of the franchise. It was originally published in 2010, but its differential value is that the development was carried out by the Californian studio Obsidian Entertainment. Fallout: New Vegas It is considered the delivery with the best narrative and for many it is the one that gives the most options when it comes to role-playing in the wilderness.
It’s a 14-year-old game made for PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, but don’t let that stop you. Fallout: New Vegas It is one of the best role-playing games of the last 20 years. Plus, it costs less than three euros on Steam so there’s no excuse.
