AFallout 4player has noticed an adorable detail about the game’s canine companion, Dogmeat. While some gamers prefer tomod Dogmeat inFallout 4, this particular detail can be discovered in the base game.
The companions inFallout 4were one of the most-praised features of the game. Bethesda took a quality-over-quantity approach, which allowed the developer to delve deeper into the stories of each companion. This was the opposite ofSkyrim’s style, which allowed many of the NPCs in the game to accompany the player, but with much less depth. There are definitely pros and cons to both, however it’s safe to say thatFallout 4’s system was more favored by players in general and seems to have set the blueprint for Bethesda companions to come.

The cute detail was noticed by Redditor SleepyMikel, who posted the image of Dogmeat with a teddy bear. Apparently, if a player gives Dogmeat a teddy bear inFallout 4, he’ll hold it in his mouth in the most adorable way possible. Dogmeat was already one of themost popular companions inFallout 4, and this recent discovery is something that many players will certainly have missed, even across multiple playthroughs of the game. Some gamers in the thread did notice the hilarious juxtaposition between Dogmeat being this adorable and him also being a vicious animal capable of tearing raiders apart.
It’s interesting to see the more minute details ofFallout 4still being uncovered to this day. Of course, there are surely some players who will have stumbled upon this years ago, but it’s definitely not common knowledge among players of the game.Fallout 4is simply so broad that not everyone can discover everything, even with multiple playthroughs. The player who discovered thehelpful use of power armor with a targeting helmet inFallout 4is a perfect example of this. It’s another niche find that only adds to how thoroughly detailed the game is even if only a sliver of players might actually discover it.
Gamers will be hopingDogmeat will return inFallout 5. The pup has appeared in every mainlineFallouttitle to date except for the online titleFallout 76, so it would be a major shock if he were to be excluded from the future release. The relationship between Dogmeat and the Sole Survivor was a key point ofFallout 4marketing pre-release. While it’s unknown if Bethesda will go that far again, the adorable companion is sure to play his part wheneverFallout 5eventually releases.
Fallout 4is available now for PC, PS4, and Xbox One, with PS5 and Xbox Series X/S versions coming in 2023.
