To nobody's surprise at all, it looks like Bethesda's little foray into mobile territory, Fallout Shelter, took almost no time at all to become the #1 most-downloaded game in 48 countries, and in 25 countries, the most-downloaded app of any kind on iOS devices. The game is free to download at the App Store and is currently in development for Android devices. The game puts you in charge of an underground Vault in the wake of a nuclear war.
Todd Howard, Game Director at Bethesda Game Studios:
“We play games on our phones all the time, and have always wanted to make one. To have our first mobile game be enjoyed by so many is stunning. It just shows that gamers appreciate more depth and being treated fairly. It also shows people love Fallout as much as we do.”
Fallout Shelter remains the number 1 most downloaded free game on the App Store. In the first week following its release, play sessions of Fallout Shelter have surpassed 70 million times a day by fans globally.
