It seems that the Fallout Shelter Android game will be released in a few weeks. Bethesda wrote on their official Twitter account that they are very excited to announce that the Android users will be able to play the Fallout Shelter game starting from August 13, 2015.
According to Game Spot, this was also announced during the QuakeCon 2015 conference, when Bethesda said that the Fallout Shelter game is going to be released on the Google Play Store next month, along with a big update.
It seems that the new update will come with Mr. Handy, which is a robot assistant in the Fallout series. This robot will be brought to the Fallout Shelter and we’re pretty sure that a lot of people will be very happy about this.
For now there is no information regarding how the players will be able to receive the Mr. Handy robot. However, according to IBTimes, Mr. Handy will most likely be a reward that you will be able to receive via the lunchboxes.
Mr. Handy will also help you by collecting resources automatically. The robot will even explore the Wasteland for you, which means that this will surely be a great addition to the game. To make things even better, Mr. Handy will also help you to defend the Vault against attackers, which means that you will surely need to get your “hands” on it as soon as possible, because it’s extremely useful.
The update will also bring some new kinds of attacks and new enemies such as the Deathclaws that you’ve seen in the Fallout universe. The new update will also come with Molerats as infestation.
We remind you that Fallout Shelter was released on June 14, 2015, during the E3 2015 conference, but it was available only for iOS. In the same day, Bethesda official announced the Fallout 4 game.
In only two weeks after the release, the mobile game became the top downloaded game in over 48 countries and the top downloaded application in 25 countries. Bethesda has gained over 5 million dollars from selling it and we’re pretty sure that once this game will be released for Android devices, the revenues will be huge.
The new update that brings Mr. Handy, Molerats and Deathclaws will be released for Fallout Shelter game for both iOS and Android devices on August 13, 2015.
