One observant Starfield player has discovered a new Easter egg that pays homage to one of gaming's most popular inside jokes. While the developers at Bethesda Game Studios have included a lot of references, big and small, to remind players that Starfield takes place in a future version of this universe, most of them aren't a direct nod-and-a-wink to the gaming community.
Every Fallout Easter egg in the Prime Video show
11.04.2024 - 21:39 / polygon.com
Fallout is braving a whole new world — sort of. The new show from Prime Video is blazing a trail in the same continuity as that of the games. It’s a bold choice for a video game show (particularly when so many either just adapt the main plot of the game or create an entirely separate timeline to muck about in), though in keeping with the open-world RPG spirit of Fallout.
And it means that Easter eggs aren’t necessarily just little nods to the game. Sure, some of them might be. But they may also be laying the groundwork for season 2. Either way, they’re extra fun to pay attention to in the world of Fallout,which is absolutely full of them. Here’s (the ongoing list of) every Easter egg we spotted in Fallout,separated out behind spoiler warnings as necessary:
There are a few references to the retro computer interfaces players interact with in the Fallout franchise. In the first episode, Lucy’s little brother, Norm, is goofing off playing Atomic Command — a holotape from Fallout 4 — on his Pip-Boy. Later on, he needs to hack into a Vault terminal, and it’s the same hacking minigame players are familiar with. Bad for operation security, but great for anyone who needs to uncover an eerie conspiracy.
Some of the enemies from mainline Fallout games show up in the show to menace our protagonists. This includes raiders — in episode 1, one bloodthirsty raider menacing Chet pulls out a combat chem that looks and sounds a lot like Psycho. We also get to see our first Radroach in episode 2 when Dogmeat snacks on one (that was about to snack on Lucy).
Brother Titus of the Brotherhood encounters a yao guai, a mutated and monstrous bear that first appeared in Fallout 3 and returns in both New Vegas and Fallout 4. A super mutant also shows up on a collection of wanted posters, showing that these big green menaces are still around to some degree.
In episode 2, Lucy explores a small, abandoned house. The shelves are littered with knickknacks, but the inhabitants of the house are all dead. Lucy observes the situation and uncovers the cause of their demise: Rat poison was added to their last supper. This scene establishes the horrors of the Wasteland, but it also feels like a nod to Bethesda’s notorious habit of littering skeletons everywhere for ambient storytelling.
Nuka Cola shows up at various points in the show, which makes sense, as it was the most popular fizzy beverage before the bombs dropped. In episode 3, we can also spot an advertisement for Sunset Sarsaparilla, a New Vegasbeverage with a very annoying side quest related to collecting Sunset Sarsaparilla caps.
Later in the episode, the Ghoul encourages Lucy to drink filthy, stagnant water, her rad counter clicking wildly as she desperately quenches her

The Fallout series’ most authentic performances happen in the Wasteland
The first episode of Fallout, the new streaming series on Amazon, felt a lot like the beginning of Fallout 3 for me — and not in the good way. Swapping out Liam Neeson for Kyle MacLachlan felt like a downgrade going in, but that’s probably because I’m just not a fan of his “subtle dread and kind smile” schtick. Just as in Bethesda’s 2008 sequel, life inside the Vault felt pretty bland, but things really started to open up for me in episode 2, when we finally arrived in the Wasteland.
