Call of Duty's Fallout Crossover: Vault Dweller Skins and Themed Weapon Blueprints Arrive June 20
In an exciting fusion of two iconic franchises, Activision has announced the upcoming release of Fallout-themed content for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, Warzone, and Warzone Mobile. Set to go live on June 20, 2024, at 10 AM PT, this crossover event introduces Vault Dweller skins for beloved characters, unique weapon blueprints, and a slew of other Fallout-inspired items. Here’s a detailed look at what fans can expect from this highly anticipated event.
Vault Dweller Skins for Task Force 141
The highlight of the crossover is undoubtedly the Vault Dweller skins for Price, Ghost, Soap, and Gaz. These skins dress the members of Task Force 141 in the iconic blue and gold jumpsuits synonymous with Fallout’s Vault Dwellers. While some fans have expressed mixed feelings about the aesthetic, the skins bring a unique and nostalgic flavor to the Call of Duty universe.
Fallout-Themed Weapon Blueprints
In addition to the character skins, the crossover includes two Fallout-themed weapon blueprints:
“Vault-Tec Approved” M16 Weapon Blueprint: This blueprint features the JAK Cutthroat Stock and JAK Patriot Conversion Kit, transforming the M16 into a fully automatic rifle with enhanced recoil control and firing stability. It comes with a 45 Round Mag and attachments to improve handling and recoil control, making it ideal for long-range engagements.
“Atomic Disintegrator” HRM-9 Weapon Blueprint: Designed for close-quarters combat, this SMG boasts a 50 Round Drum Magazine, thermal target identification, improved accuracy, and recoil control, along with extended range capabilities.
Additional Bundle Content
The Fallout: Vault Dwellers Bundle offers more than just skins and weapon blueprints. Players will also receive:
- Charms: “Let’s Do This!” and “Fatman”
- Calling Card: “Wasteland Workshop”
- Large Decal: “You’re Special”
- Emblem: “Vault-Tec Engineer”
- Sticker: “Nuka-Cola Spacer”
- Six Loading Screens: Including “Nuka-Cola,” “Please Stand By,” “Survivors’ Journey,” “Sanctuary Hills,” “Vault 141,” and “Restoring Democracy”
The Fallout: Vault Dwellers Event
Running from June 20 to June 26, the in-game event features challenges across Multiplayer, Zombies, and Warzone modes. Players using the Vault Dweller skins will enjoy an additional XP boost and can earn more Fallout-themed cosmetic items such as the “New California Republic” Large Decal, “Nuka-Cola Caps” Emblem, “Slocum’s Joe” Sticker, “Nuka-Cola” Charm, and the “Nuka-Cola Quantum” Weapon Camo.
Community Reactions and Criticisms
While the crossover has generated excitement, some fans have expressed disappointment over the absence of more iconic Fallout elements, such as Power Armor or Ranger armor from Fallout: New Vegas. Despite these criticisms, the crossover event is expected to be a hit, capitalizing on the renewed interest in Fallout sparked by the success of Amazon Prime’s Fallout TV show.
