Bradberton is a location in the exterior of Nuka-World in 2287.

Background[]

Named after John-Caleb Bradberton, this company town was founded in 2060 to house Nuka-World employees and shorten their commute.[1] It was connected to the highway passing through the area via the Bradberton overpass. Several feral ghouls roam the streets.

Layout[]

The small town of Bradberton is built around a main road, with a police station, motel, and other public buildings in the central square. Most of the buildings that are not boarded up are ruined and littered with dirt and debris. The motel's limited scrap is still open to scavengers. A small inaccessible church is down the main road to the west. A playground is in the southeast part of town, and a small graveyard near a house with a carport and a weapons workbench is on the northeast outskirts. Just west of the playground, the ruins of the Little Nuka Gift Shop and its working terminal can be explored.

Notable loot[]

Appearances[]

Bradberton appears only in the Fallout 4 add-on Nuka-World.

Notes[]

Upon entering the town along the south road, there is an altar in the second house on the left. The altar is decorated with the sun and stars. In front of the altar, a pile of glowing embers is on the floor with a Chinese officer sword sticking out of it. The Sole Survivor can "kindle" the fire, causing it to burst into flames and resulting in stimpaks falling from thin air. Taking the sword will cause more stimpaks to appear.

Behind the scenes[]

The altar is a reference to the Dark Souls series, in which bonfires are used to refill the player character's health, much like stimpaks in the Fallout series.[2] Kindling is also the name of a gameplay mechanic in Dark Souls.
