Fallout 3: Operation Anchorage is the first downloadable content (DLC) pack for Fallout 3, released on January 27, 2009. In Operation: Anchorage players can re-live the famous liberation of Anchorage from Fallout lore - inside a simulation similar to one found along the main quest of Fallout 3. Once the player finds their way into the simulation, they'll be stripped of their resources and have to survive within the rules set up by the simulation's creators. The Chinese red army is everywhere, and the player will first have to secure the surrounding mountain side and then fight their way into the Chinese base. The player will have to use a lot of their standard combat skills, along with several new tools that will only be available in the downloadable content. These include interactive Strike Teams under the player's command and unique armor, weapons, and other exotic gadgets.
