The Fallout franchise has a long and complex history and timeline that has been expanding its post-apocalyptic future ever since the original game’s release back in 1997. With 4 mainline games, a handful of spin-offs, and now a TV show that’s set within the same universe, the series has a big, meaty timeline to wrap your head around. And with the Amazon Prime TV show expanding on the franchise’s lore, and extending the timeline further into the future, there is no better time to dive back into the lore of Fallout than now.
This is the Fallout timeline fully explained.
From the Pre-War origins of RobCo. and Vault-Tec all the way through to Lucy MacLean’s journey to find her father via the stories set in the Capital Wasteland and the Commonwealth, this video breaks down the long and complex timeline of the Fallout franchise.

  • Iv never really thought of the Pip Boy being the Fallout Universe's Iphone, but it pretty much is. Only ever playing Fallout 3 way back in 2008 I phones were still quite new, so I didn't quite make the connection back then. Fallout's universe really its the culture that halted, while everything else accelerated further then beyond even our own time line. We might have affordable 70 inch flatscreen tvs, but they had nuclear powered CRT's that could run for 1000 years. The people of the fallout universe (before the great war) would look at our own technology and think we were backward.

There was no focus to miniaturise it though due to the wars etc. They were also more susceptible to EMP than vacuum tubes(reason from Devs). There's several things in FO that contain transistors such as MR handy, Platinum chip and probably the pip boy and terminals, its just they were used in less quantity due to size.

  • This has been discussed ad nauseum. Shady Sands was not nuked in 2177. The timeline describes that the decline of the NCR happened in 2177 and then (separated by a dash) the town of Shady Sands was nuked sometime after. Shady Sands existed and is mentioned by members of the NCR during the events of Fallout New Vegas in 2281 so it had to have been blown up after the Second Battle of the Hoover Dam and after the conclusion of the DLC for FO:NV.

Todd Howard confirmed in an interview recently with IGN that it was nuked after the events of Fallout: New Vegas. People just misread the timeline. The Nuke on the timeline in the show indicated an event AFTER the denoted "Fall of Shady Sands" meaning they are actually separate events.

  • This is great! Love to see the older games get a shout out, though I think it would had been better if you did a series explaining each game in the timeline as the clip notes for each are kinda haphazard and not entirely right with a lot of neat important lore glossed over. Also I'm not sure if 76 should be considered canon since it really breaks the lore established down the timeline, from the brotherhood, to super mutants, the tech and what have you (I'm aware they have some hokey justifications but it still really doesn't make sense in the scheme of things) Would be nice if you also did a look into the Fallout Bible/ original Fallout 3 (Van Buren) since quite a number of ideas did seep into the Bethesda iterations. *also a tiny editing gripe since it's a bit misleading to those who didn't play it, when mentioning killing the head of the Enclave at the end of Fallout 2 part, that's not the president but Special Agent Frank Horrigan the baddest Gen1 Super Mutant! Ah I can still remember the 1st time you meet him good memories! poor family...

Additionally the cursedness of the newly mutated wildlife is also thanks to said FEV ending up in the atmosphere shortly after the apocalypse, causing the virus to mutate due to radiation and essentially turning the usual mutation caused by nuclear fallout up by 100000
