Fallout TV Series: All References & Easter Eggs So Far
The Fallout TV series, like all video game to TV/movie adaptations, is filled with easter eggs and references from the games aplenty. From the 1997 CRPG to the recent Fallout 4 mothership title which got an update a few days ago, Amazon Prime and Bethesda managed to cram a lot of these in all eight episodes.
We’ll be touching on all eight episodes, so here’s your spoiler warning. We’ll also add more we may have missed in the coming hours and days.
You can’t have a Fallout show without the popular cereal Sugar Bombs and long-lasting thirst-quencher Nuka-Cola. It’s also a surprise to see the Fallout 4 gag cartoon Grognak and the Ruby Ruins playing at the start of Episode 1.
A delicacy in the entire Fallout series. Lucy gets peddled one in Episode 2.
The two-headed cows that help carry loads for merchants. Also in Episode 2.
A minigame in Fallout 4 you can play. You can see Lucy’s brother Norman playing this in Episode 1.
Not only will you see their Power Armor in full force in the series, but also the Steel Airships and Vertibirds.
A drug that you can use to power yourself up but at the expense of being addicted to it. A raider was seen huffing Jet in Episode 1.
A health-boosting food item common in Fallout 3 onward.
A Fallout: New Vegas reference. This drink is popular in the game; this delivery truck can be spotted in Episode 3.
In Episode 3, a Vault 33 technician made the news that the Water Purification Chip is broken. That’s one of the key plot points in the 1997 CRPG original game Fallout, where the Vault Dweller has to go out of his/her vault to retrieve a new one.
At the end of Episode 3, we see Cooper/The Ghoul wearing the first-ever Vault-Tec suit and the thumbs up Vault boy pose that’s iconic to this day.
The first gun you get to use in the first Fallout game (and in future games). This classic Fallout weapon makes its appearance in Episode 4 when she’s dealing with Feral Ghouls in a supermarket.
Speaking of supermarket, the Super-Duper Mart store is a staple in Fallout 3, Fallout 4, and Fallout 76.
The dog known as CX404, or Dogmeat in this Fallout universe, makes her debut in Episode 2. Dogmeat is a dog companion who has been around since the first game. Different dogs bearing the name Dogmeat, we mean.
The Mr Handy robot butlers make a few appearances in the show, along with the voice behind it (via Matt Berry).
In episode 2, there’s a glimpse of a dead body being covered and brought back to a science lab. If you see the dead body’s hand, it’s most likely belonging to a Super Mutant. These are the big bads of the first Fallout, as well as in the sequels, though some of them end up being non-hostile and even join your party at one point.
You’ll find the scrapped remains of one (and many), starting in Episode 2 while Lucy is searching in the desert wasteland.
The mutant bear that you find in Fallout 3 onward makes an antagonistic appearance in Episode 2 where it attacks Knight Titus.
The medicine that makes the stat-debuffing radiation go away, this pack makes its debut in Episode 5.
One of the enemy factions in Fallout: New Vegas. They are chem-addiction Raiders who kill anything and anyone on sight. Lucy and Maximus came across two of these in Episode 5.
The first town you come across in the original Fallout game. This location plays a pivotal part in the story of the TV series at the second half.
In Episode 6, vault dweller Lucy was checking out the classroom of Vault 4, only to find out the history of Shady Sands and the New California Republic. She also finds the emblem and flag of the NCR too.
In the next episode, we see two scavengers donning NCR Desert Ranger Combat Armor.
A former pitstop chain in Fallout 4. You’ll find this in Episode 7.
A minigame in Fallout 3 onward, this minigame makes its appearance in Episode 7 when Norman tries to hack a computer in a Vault.
Fallout’s resident brain-in-jar robot, this one makes an appearance in Episode 8.
The owner of RobCo, Robert House, and one of the main characters of Fallout: New Vegas makes an appearance in a Vault-Tec meeting on Episode 8. We also get to see the city he eventually made in the series: New Vegas. The vista of the city of sin is the final shot of Episode 8.
More old-school Fallout references via the Episode 8 business meeting: West Tek were responsible for the FEV and super mutants, while RepConn was responsible for rocket manufacturing before the Great War. Big MT was a defense contractor; the company’s biggest research facility was the backdrop for the Fallout: New Vegas DLC Old World Blues.
There aren’t any in the TV series, save for a skull of a dead one at the end of Episode 8. We’ll probably see them in Season 2 when this show makes bank.
