<p><em>Fallout Shelter</em> is less than a month away from <a href="https://bagogames.com/fallout-shelters-out-in-august-for-android/">release on Android</a>, but it&#8217;s also coming with a handy update on all its platforms.</p>
<p>The game hits Android devices precisely on <strong>Aug. 13th</strong> we&#8217;ve now learned and on that same day, players will also get their hands on a Mr. Handy, the series&#8217; robotic assistant, who will act as your resource collector, Vault defender, and resident Citizen. It&#8217;s not yet clear how you&#8217;ll get him, but he can be sent to the Wasteland like any other character as well as acquire new treasures for you.</p>
<p>A few new enemies are also coming courtesy of the update. The series&#8217; hellish Deathclaw creatures will now attack your Vault much like Raiders do at present while Molerats will invade your quarters akin to Radroaches.</p>
<p>We liked <em><a href="https://bagogames.com/playing-thermonuclear-god-fallout-shelter-review/">Fallout Shelter</a>&#8216;</em>s<em> </em>initial challenge following its release, though we thought it could use more variety in its tasks and deeper customization. Hopefully Mr. Handy will lend something to either category.</p>
