The open world RPG of post-apocalyptic scavenging starts again. Similar in vein to its predecessor, Fallout 4 allows you to hop into Power Armor once more to fight against the tyrannies of the Commonwealth.

Once you get underway into the game, you can start to make choices on your gender, face and starting S.P.E.C.I.A.L attributes, levelling them and various other fun perks as you level up towards infinity. That's right, the cap from previous games has been removed, allowing you to buff up as many perks as you want, from Heavy Guns to Robotics Expert to Ninja.

This beautiful world runs on the Creation Engine, so if you liked the visuals in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim then you won't be disappointed. If you're playing the PC or Xbox version, you can modify the game with third-party plugins, using programs such as Nexus Mod Manager and LOOT, enabling even richer experiences, from additional armor, to more quests and customizable skins.

The quests themselves aren't as varied as you'd find in Fallout 3 but do not let that sway you from purchasing the game, nor it's DLCs. The best DLCs include Far Harbor and Nuka-World though the Season Pass is still well worth it if you're an avid fan of Bethesda's games.

The amount of content in this game is still staggering though, from the huge number of weapon customizations, powerful legendary loot, and settlements to craft there is always something to do. Survival mode difficulty cranks things even further up to 11, by really making things challenging, making you think before you fire because, if you die, you instantly go back to when you last slept. A bummer if you haven't slept for ages, but so rewarding when you finally get in bed after shooting 20 feral ghouls in the face. (Ad victoriam!)

Why are you still reading? Grab the game, hop in some jet-packed power armor, and punch that deathclaw in the face!
