Giant rat

Giant rats are an oversized version of pre-War common rodents. They vary greatly in strength, from ones the size of a cat to ones bigger than humans, like their mole rat cousins. The rats are hostile and will begin combat if one draws too near, severely delaying passage through rat-infested areas.

Small rat


The smaller rats are still big enough to rival a dog in size. They usually attack in large groups and could visually appear out of nowhere. They differentiate in color, being black, gray and even white. They appear also in the former American Southwest, as well as in Texas.

Giant rat


These rats are even bigger than the mole rats and humans. Their visible spine gives them a disturbing appearance, while their size and power could prove a challenge for an inexperienced wastelander. They can be found in the Midwest, Texas and Mojave Wasteland. The Fallout 3 version was cut from the final release.

Giant rat pup


The bigger version is equal in size to a mole rat. As a result of radiation exposure, it became a little bigger and a little stronger than the smaller version. The species that exist in the Mojave have acquired white hair, blue glowing eyes, light brown color, and are bigger than the normal species.

Rodent of unusual size


The largest of the mutated rats found in the Mojave Wasteland to date, they are identical to their small and giant cousins, save for their increased size and stats. They are aggressive and will attack on sight. This is a reference to the film "Princess Bride" in which the character "Westley"/"Dread Pirate Roberts" fights off a giant rat, after replying to a question about their existence.

Unnaturally large sized rodent


These are uniquely large giant rats, with only two in existence in 2281. They are identical in appearance to other giant rats in the Mojave Wasteland, except for size. They are, however, much more aggressive and will attack you on sight along with any nearby mutated rats.

Radrat


Radrats appear in the Fallout 4 add-on Nuka-World and Fallout 76 and resemble giant rats from previous games.
