EGS is raising the bar again by bringing three classic 90s projects into a single distribution, including iconic titles like Fallout 1, Fallout 2, and Fallout Tactics. These releases shine a spotlight on a pivotal era for post-apocalyptic gaming and show how a franchise can evolve while staying true to its roots.
The first title debuted in 1997 and quickly became a landmark in the post-apocalyptic genre. Players guided an inhabitant of a subterranean bunker, tasked with locating and delivering a life-sustaining water chip to the shelter within a 150-day window, a quest that fused survival, exploration, and choice.

The sequel, Fallout 2, released in 1998, found a broader audience and later reached players in Russia and the CIS in 2006 through an official local release. Its core mission centers on locating the GECK, a device capable of turning a barren desert into a thriving oasis. The game expands the original’s world, refining its systems and presenting a fresh narrative arc that deepens the Fallout universe.

Fallout Tactics stands apart as the third entry in the distribution, emphasizing tactical combat and introducing elements that diverge from the series’ canonical timeline. Released in 2001, it foregrounds squad-based strategy while still carrying the unmistakable Fallout DNA in its atmosphere and world-building.

The distribution invites players to secure the games tomorrow, December 23, before 7 p.m. Moscow time, with the anticipation that another title will appear shortly after. In Russia and Belarus, acquiring these games is straightforward, with no need for VPNs or special tricks. Readers can stay informed about freebies and discounts in related channels and discussions, noting how such releases reflect a broader trend of retro game preservation and accessible classic experiences.
For readers curious about the broader context, these Fallout entries demonstrate how a single franchise can span different gameplay styles while preserving the signature world-building, humor, and moral choices that fans expect. The original trilogy laid the groundwork for a sprawling, choice-driven universe that still resonates with modern players today, illustrating the enduring appeal of well-crafted post-apocalyptic settings and the importance of accessible, workmanlike distribution strategies for classic games (VG Times).
