Fallout 4 magazines

General information
Magazines grant the player additional perks when read, or unlock certain benefits. Perk magazines replace skill books from earlier installments in the Fallout franchise, due to the merger of skills and perks. These perks can have multiple ranks, with the rank increasing each time the player reads a copy of the magazine. The magazine may be sold, dropped or stored after being read, and the perk or benefit will be retained.

There are a total of 122 magazines to collect throughout the Commonwealth. Magazines can be stored on display at settlements if the player builds a magazine rack and transfers them to that storage. Both types of rack can hold 20 issues, meaning 7 racks are required to display all 122 magazines.
