Deathclaw (Fallout 4)

Deathclaws are creatures found in the Commonwealth.

Characteristics
Judging from the currently released footage, deathclaws are still tough and formidable melee combatants with the Sole Survivor requiring the use of T-45b power armor and a minigun to kill one. Their appearance is also more detailed compared to their Fallout 3 and New Vegas predecessors, they have darker, scaled skin and longer horns and claws. As well, unlike the deathclaws of previous titles, the Massachusetts deathclaws appear to run on all fours when in combat.

Biology
Deathclaws are the result of a pre-War experiment that involved creating a mutation of Jackson's Chameleon, along with several other species, to use as weapons on the battlefield. They are strong, agile predators that will attack the player on sight. Their long and sharp claws are capable of inflicting great amounts of damage on the player, sometimes deadly (hence their name).

Appearances
Deathclaws appear in Fallout 4.
