Fallout 76 is an online prequel where every surviving human is a real person.

Work together, or not, to survive. Under the threat of nuclear annihilation, you'll experience the largest, most dynamic world ever created in the legendary Fallout universe.

Reclamation Day, 2102.

Twenty-five years after the bombs fall, you and your fellow Vault Dwellers — chosen from the nation's best and brightest — emerge into post-nuclear America. Play solo or join together as you explore, quest, build, and triumph against the wasteland's greatest threats.

The National Atomic Testing Museum announces it will debut its newest exhibition, “World of Fallout,” on Nov. 14, 2025. Presented in partnership with Fallout publisher Bethesda Softworks and developer Bethesda Game Studios, the installation will comprise objects associated with the game and the TV series it inspired. This compact yet powerful display will highlight the connections between real-world nuclear history and the imaginative storytelling of the video game’s universe. 

First introduced in 1997, the franchise’s expansive lore, including its famed Vaults, Vault Boy mascot, and depiction of a post-apocalyptic Wasteland, has left a lasting imprint on pop culture. The new exhibit will spotlight these elements while drawing parallels to mid-20th century nuclear history, offering visitors an opportunity to experience how atomic culture has inspired art, entertainment and collective imagination. 

Through carefully selected objects and interpretive displays, the exhibit will bridge fact and fiction. Highlights include screen-worn Vault suits and memorabilia alongside graphic panels that explore the recurring elements of the Fallout franchise, along with the key Cold War themes that influenced the world and its lore

The collaboration with Bethesda Softworks underscores the National Atomic Testing Museum’s ongoing commitment to present nuclear history through new lenses. By situating gaming lore within the broader context of science and culture, the exhibit is designed to engage both longtime Fallout fans and museum visitors. It also complements the museum’s permanent collection, which chronicles the scientific, military and social history of the Atomic Age.

Carrying the Fallout theme beyond this dedicated exhibition, the National Atomic Testing Museum will feature Fallout-inspired Easter eggs throughout its main gallery space, providing visitors with added moments of discovery as they explore the various exhibits.  

The “World of Fallout” exhibit also arrives at a time of renewed enthusiasm for the franchise, with Prime Video’s 2024 Fallout television series drawing more than 100 million viewers worldwide. Together, these projects affirm the staying power of the Fallout franchise and its resonance with both gamers and broader audiences. 

“What makes this exhibit one-of-a-kind is that we’re putting iconic Fallout symbols side by side with the history that inspired them,” said Joseph Kent, chief community officer and curator, National Atomic Testing Museum. “It’s a chance for gamers and history buffs alike to see just how closely the two worlds connect.”

“World of Fallout” is scheduled to be on view at the National Atomic Testing Museum through 2026.
