<p><strong>F</strong><em>allout Shelter</em> is one of those randomly unique mobile games – it’s free-to-play, but not too cynical about it, and yet there’s nothing quite like it. It’s done very well for itself since it released in 2015. It’s not really something that warrants a sequel, although I’d definitely pay attention if Bethesda decided to do anything new with the IP.</p>
<p>What I doubt any of us wanted though was an online-focused, free-to-play gacha title. Spotted by MMO Culture, it seems a Chinese company – Gaea Mobile Limited – has been working on an online F2P version since 2017. It’s now being released in English, Japan and Korea as&nbsp;<em>Fallout Shelter Online.</em> There was a closed beta test last year, which MMO Culture has some footage of:</p>

<p>It seems to be expanding and improving the adventure systems, which is where we imagine collecting characters becomes important. There are other new systems as well, so while we can appreciate the theory behind an expanded <em>Fallout Shelter</em>, it is a shame that it seems to also be leaning into freemium mechanics more.</p>
<p>No word on a release date yet – Pocket Gamer have spotted that the Phillipine app store is supposedly expecting it to drop on April 22nd, so we could be looking at a soft launch around then.</p>
