New Vegas is more than a city - it's the remedy to mankind's derailment.Mr.House, Fallout: New Vegas

New Vegas, originally known as Las Vegas[1] in the Wasteland before Robert House revived its reconstruction, is a city built upon the remains of Las Vegas, located in southern Nevada.

Unlike the other major cities of the United States, Vegas emerged from the atomic fire of the Great War relatively unscathed, by most of the major damage caused by the downfall of society in general.

New Vegas sewers

Main article: New Vegas sewers

Located under the New Vegas area is a sewer system with exits to most of the settlements around the city. There are no entrances to the sewers located inside the walls of the Strip or Freeside. The sections of sewer are: the North Sewers, the Central Sewers, the East Central Sewers and the Sealed Sewers.

New Vegas Strip

Main article: New Vegas Strip

The heart of New Vegas. When entering through The Strip North Gate, Gomorrah is to the right and the Lucky 38 is to the left. Further down the street is a gate to another area of the strip, which contains The Tops casino, the Ultra-Luxe, and the Camp McCarran monorail. Beyond that, through another gate, is Vault 21, Michael Angelo's workshop and the NCR Embassy.

North Vegas Square

Main article: North Vegas Square

Like Freeside, North Vegas Square are part of the slums of New Vegas. There is almost nothing of interest and the place is mostly filled with unimportant individuals. Most of the buildings are decrepit and falling apart, more so than other locations in the Mojave Wasteland. The only places of interest here are an apartment building called The Gray and a manhole to the North Sewers. The citizens living in this area are highly independent or some might say xenophobic, they are very suspicious of outsiders and highly reject the presence of the New California Republic.

Westside

Main article: Westside

Though it is one of the poorer residential areas of the city, it houses its own militia and has, unlike every other part of the city, become more or less self-dependent, growing its own food and maintaining its own water supply. The residents often complain of problems with the Fiends, who often harass and even kill them in constant raids. A smaller gang, the Scorpions also have a presence around the southern outskirts.

The larger neighborhood, exposed to the Mojave Wasteland, is surrounded by a small network of walls, while the residential and commercial area is walled completely, except for two gates. The Westside's services include a food store, a brothel, a liquor store, a pawn shop, and a fighting arena where matches can both be fought and bet upon.

Notes

  • If you have a reputation low enough with the NCR that they attack you on sight, the drunk military police on the strip will not attack, however four NCR troopers with Cattle Prods may spawn outside of Michael Angelo's workshop, and attack the player. When the player kills them, they lose fame from both the NCR and The Strip, and the Securitrons in the area will become hostile, forcing the player to kill them as well, and lose more fame from the strip. The Securitrons in the other sections of The Strip will not be hostile however.

Appearances

New Vegas was first mentioned as Las Vegas by Tycho in Fallout, and appears only in Fallout: New Vegas.
