Fallout Shelter 1.1 Update Adds Mr. Handy and Tons of New Changes

August 13, 2015 by Ian Miles Cheong

Here’s what to expect in Fallout Shelter 1.1.

Fallout Shelter is out on the Android today, as we reported earlier. In addition to its release on the platform, Bethesda has issued a major update to the game, also available for the iOS.

The 1.1 patch adds the robotic companion Mr. Handy as a premium reward and a host of changes. Here's what to expect:

V 1.1 Change Log

Overseers should be on the lookout for new threats to their Vault Dwellers. Some Vaults have reported attacks by burrowing Mole Rats and enraged Deathclaws – likely attracted by the sound of new construction.

Vault-Tec has partnered with General Atomics International in order to offer Overseers their very own robot butler – the Mister Handy! Now you lazier Overseers have a friendly, entertaining alternative to tapping and collecting resources. (Crumpets not included.)

Our engineers clearly underestimated the, *ahem*, usefulness of living quarters to stimulate Vault growth, resulting is gross overpopulation and decreased Vault efficiency. Rest assured, the simulation has been adjusted, and Vaults of all shapes and sizes should now run more smoothly.

Not content with stealing your Vault’s resources, some rather enterprising Raiders have now resorted to stealing Caps as well. (If you haven’t armed your Vault Dwellers yet, now’s the time!)

As Vault-Tec does not approve of the use of unsanctioned levitation technology, all Vault Dwellers that were found floating through the air have been grounded. Permanently.

Some of the more difficult daily objective requirements have been adjusted to more obtainable levels. You’re welcome.

Continued general maintenance to the Vault simulation. Because an efficient machine is a happy machine!
