What’s new and what makes it special?
The Pip-Boy from Fallout is one of the most iconic in-game accessories—a wrist-worn computer used by vault dwellers in the post-apocalyptic world. This new replica aims to bring that fantasy into real life in a meaningful way.
Key features include:
- 1:1 scale wearable design, with memory foam cuff for wrist/forearm fit.
- Die-cast metal front casing and high-fidelity build (ABS body, injection-molded parts) giving a premium look and feel.
- Standalone IPS LCD screen, displaying nearly all the original in-game menus from Fallout 3 and New Vegas, toggling between classic green UI and yellowish UI.
- Playable minigame “Atomic Command” built into the device.
- Additional functions: FM radio simulation (acting as a radiation detector), flashlight, alarm clock mode, display stand when not worn.
What you should know before buying
- Pre-order only: The device is available for pre-order now via Bethesda’s Gear Store. It is not yet shipping.
- Shipping expected June 2026: While pre-orders are out now, shipping is scheduled for June 2026 (so you’ll wait a while).
- Price: Retail price is about US $299.99.
- Size & fit: Device weighs approx 724 g, dimensions 178 mm x 130 mm x 130 mm per official specs. Cuff size extended for larger arms.
