Point Lookout is the fourth downloadable extra for Fallout 3, transporting the player to the misty swampland along Maryland’s coast. In the Fallout universe, the town of Point Lookout is unique in that it has not been directly damaged by bombs or harmed by later combat. Instead, it has been neglected and isolated for decades.
Unlike previous DLC packs, the player can travel to and from Point Lookout at any time, even before completing the pack’s unique new objectives. The new territory in the DLC comprises the titular beach town, an amusement park, and a vast expanse of adjacent swampland and towns. New foes have also been included, the majority of which are mutant locals. In the main quest, the player must explore the landscape, discover the truth behind an eternal feud, and choose which side to support.
Point Lookout introduces 13 new tasks, four new milestones, and three additional perks to the game. Many artifacts have also been included, ranging from rural weapons like double-barrel shotguns to Civil War antiques.
