Fallout Shelter is due to receive a significant update for iOS and Android later this month, so it’s safe to assume the same features will appear in the PC version.

Since its launch following E3 in 2015, Fallout Shelter has received over 50 million downloads across all available platforms.

Considering this is Bethesda’s mobile debut it’s a seriously impressive achievement.
