A comprehensive compilation of Fallout titles is set to hit shelves this Spring, offering fans a consolidated package featuring seven games that have defined the iconic franchise over the past two decades.
Unveiled earlier today, the Fallout SPECIAL Anthology encompasses all seven mainline Fallout games and is scheduled for release on April 11. Drawing inspiration from the perk cards familiar to players of Fallout 76, purchasers will receive seven-game codes granting access to Fallout, Fallout 2, Fallout Tactics, as well as the Ultimate or Game of the Year Editions of Fallout 3, Fallout 4, New Vegas, and Fallout 76.
These seven SPECIAL cards, each accompanied by a corresponding game code, will be housed within a replica Mini-Nuke, complete with an explosive sound effect.

The cards depict Vault Boy showcasing skills relevant to each of the attributes crucial in shaping characters throughout the RPG series. While perk cards are unique to Fallout 76, the SPECIAL attributes have remained integral to the game’s mechanics for many years.
Bethesda has timed the release of this collection to coincide with the debut of the Fallout TV show, slated to premiere on Amazon Prime on April 12. Interestingly, the announcement comes hot on the heels of Bethesda’s recent withdrawal of a giveaway featuring some of the original Fallout games on the Epic Games Store.
Pre-orders for the anthology are now open, although pricing details have yet to be disclosed. While it’s likely that individual games can be acquired separately at potentially lower prices through savvy shopping, the allure of owning a replica nuke to house, the collection is bound to make this anthology a tempting prospect for collectors.
