"Surge in Fallout 76 Player Count Linked to Fallout TV Show and Free Play Offers"
TL;DR
The Fallout TV show's success has led to a significant boost in revenue and downloads for the mobile game Fallout Shelter, with daily revenue skyrocketing from $20,000 to $80,000 and downloads more than doubling. Concurrent players for various Fallout games on Steam have also more than doubled, with Fallout 76 reaching a new peak concurrent players record. The show's tie-in with the game, including official S.P.E.C.I.A.L. stats for characters, has likely contributed to the surge in interest.
