Text Your Fellow Wastelanders With This Fallout Emoji App
War may never change, but that doesn’t mean you have to keep using the same dull pizza emoji to order your lunch. Bethesda has teamed up with Apple and Android to create an official Fallout emoji app.
The Fallout C.H.A.T. (or “Communication Hub And Transmitter”) app lets you pick from one of dozens of custom Fallout emojis or gifs to insert into your message. Examples include a grimacing super mutant face, a superhero Vault Boy fending off explosive debris, and Fallout 4’s dog companion in a fetching bandana and goggles combo. You can send actual words, too, formatted to look like in-game text. In total, there’s more than 60 emojis and gifs. No word on what happens when you send the Nuka Cola emoji to Target, who’s partnering with Jones Soda to sell an official Nuka Cola Quantum drink on November 10.
The Fallout C.H.A.T. app is available worldwide for free on iPhone, iPad, and Android devices.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
