Fallout Shelter Celebrates 10 Years with Its Biggest Update Yet: Seasons Launch with “Viva New Vegas”

 

A decade after its surprise launch and more than 230 million downloads worldwide, Fallout Shelter is proving that life in the Vault is still thriving. Bethesda Game Studios has officially rolled out the game’s first-ever Season, marking its largest update since Quests were introduced in 2016—and it’s available now for players on Android, iOS, and Steam.

Seasons Arrive in the Vault

Inspired by Vault-Tec’s love of questionable experiments, Seasons introduce a brand-new way to experience Fallout Shelter. Each Season features limited-time Vaults that are completely separate from a player’s main Vault, offering fresh challenges, progression, and rewards without disrupting long-term builds.

Every Season will carry a unique theme, giving players new objectives to tackle and exclusive loot to earn. Best of all, Seasons are accessible to all players, making this update a major evolution of the Shelter experience.

Viva New Vegas Kicks Things Off

The debut Season, Viva New Vegas, draws inspiration from the upcoming Prime Video Fallout television series, blending classic franchise nostalgia with new content. During the Season, players can embark on special Quests to help revitalize iconic locations like Novac and New Vegas, bringing familiar wasteland landmarks into the Shelter format.

Introducing the Season Pass

Alongside Seasons comes the Season Pass, a progression-based rewards tracker unique to each Season. By completing in-game challenges, players can unlock a mix of new and returning items, including weapons, outfits, pets, and dwellers—plus three characters from the Fallout TV series.

Players can choose between two tracks:

  • Free Season Pass – Earn rewards just by playing.
  • Paid Season Pass – Unlock premium rewards as you progress.

Notably, rewards are retroactive, meaning players who upgrade later in the Season won’t miss out on previously earned unlocks.

Premium Season Pass Perks

For Vault Overseers who want it all, the Premium Season Pass Upgrade delivers every paid reward plus bonus extras, including:

  • Exclusive pets, outfits, and weapons
  • 25 Badges to instantly gain Season ranks
  • And the standout reward: Mr. House as a Legendary Dweller

Available Now

Fallout Shelter’s Viva New Vegas Season is live today on mobile devices and Steam, ushering in a new era for one of Bethesda’s most enduring titles. Whether you’re a longtime Overseer or returning after years away, there’s never been a better time to reopen the Vault door.

An Intimate Evening with Damon Johnson at Back Forty Ballroom: A Perfect Night of Music and History in Fort Payne

There’s something special about seeing a great musician in a room that feels personal—where the stories are just as powerful as the songs. That’s exactly what the audience experienced on March 7, 2026 at 7:30 PM during “An Evening with Brother Cane’s Damon Johnson” at Back Forty Ballroom in downtown Fort Payne, Alabama. The venue itself sets the tone before the first note is even played. Back Forty Ballroom is tucked inside the beautifully restored W.B. Davis Hosiery Mill, a building that has stood in Fort Payne since 1889. Instead of stripping away the building’s history, the restoration celebrates it. Original brick walls, aged wooden beams, and warm ambient lighting create an atmosphere that feels both historic and welcoming. Walking into the ballroom feels like stepping into a piece of Alabama’s past—yet everything about the space is perfectly suited for modern events. The open layout, soft glow of string lights, and rustic textures make it ideal for weddings, concerts, and gathe...
