The Tunes of Fallout: New Vegas

Fans looking to tune into more iconic music while roaming the next Fallout wasteland are in luck. Today we're announcing a number of the tracks featured in Fallout: New Vegas, and as you might imagine, it's packed with classic tracks from Vegas' long musical history. Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Nat King Kole, Bing Crosby and more will croon across two major radio stations. Check out the list below.

New Vegas Concept Art

We figured it'd be a good time to share some of the art that drove the concept of the Mojave Wasteland now that New Vegas will be shipping to stores in a  few short weeks. On hand to describe the pieces is Obsidian senior artist Joe Sanabria.

The Strip
Looking out from a high vantage point somewhere over Westside New Vegas, we see the Lucky 38 on the horizon dominating the valley skyline in this golden hour. As the sun drops behind the Spring Mountains, local residents hold refuge in small camps, constructed with salvaged materials. They live in the shadow of the strip, left to fend for themselves.

The Fort
From high up on the hill or The Fort as it's known today, Caesar and his Legion have a commanding view of Hoover Dam. Waiting for the right moment, Caesar is busy preparing the newest batch of slaves to do his bidding. The approaching storm from the East signals the coming battle at the dam between the NCR and the Legion.

Michael Hogan gets you on your feet

We're also pleased to announce that Michael Hogan (Battlestar Galactica) is a part of the ensemble cast. Hogan plays the role of Doc Mitchell, who will assist your character at the beginning of the game.
