Fallout franchise media expansion

Overview

Stern Pinball announced the release of three new Fallout-themed pinball machines, developed in collaboration with Bethesda Game Studios and Kilter Films. The machines—available in Pro, Premium, and a Limited Edition restricted to 770 units—utilize assets from the video game series and its Amazon Prime Video adaptation. Gameplay features include character-specific modes for Lucy MacLean, The Ghoul, and Maximus, alongside technical elements like a die-cast Pip-Boy 3000 Mark V and a Fat Man multi-axis launcher.

Following the announcement, the expansion of the franchise was contextualized by its historical development, specifically noting the legal disputes between Bethesda and Interplay. A 2012 settlement regarding the rights to a Fallout MMO influenced the series' direction and the development of subsequent titles such as Fallout 76.
