About
Fallout: New Vegas is an action role-playing game in the Fallout series, developed by Obsidian Entertainment and published by Bethesda Softworks. It released for Microsoft Windows, Xbox 360, and PlayStation 3 in October 2010.
Set in a post-apocalyptic open world across parts of Nevada, California, and Arizona, the story follows Courier 6. Before the game begins, the Courier is hired by the Mojave Express to deliver an unknown package across the Mojave Desert to the New Vegas Strip. During the delivery, the Courier is intercepted, shot in the head, and left for dead by a mysterious man who steals the package. Found by a friendly robot named Victor and healed by Doc Mitchell, the Courier returns to the desert to seek revenge and recover what was stolen. Along the way, the Courier becomes entangled in multiple factions fighting for control of the region and its most valuable asset, Hoover Dam—ultimately influencing the future of the people who live there.
Although it followed Fallout 3 in release order and shares a similar action RPG experience, engine, and legacy content, New Vegas is not a direct sequel. It also brings back elements seen in Fallout 2. The game was a critical and commercial success, shipping more than 5 million copies. Market research firm Electronic Entertainment Design and Research estimates worldwide sales at almost 12 million copies.
Storyline

The search draws the Courier into a faction war over New Vegas and the strategic Hoover Dam, where your alliances and decisions can decide the region’s future.
