Novac

Fallout: New Vegas guide · Traveling north from Nipton
← All areas in this guide

Novac is a small roadside settlement centered around the Dino Dee-lite Motel and a giant novelty dinosaur statue. Players come here following the main quest trail to track Benny, which leads to speaking with Manny Vargas or Craig Boone. The town also serves as a hub for several side quests, including investigating a slave-trading conspiracy and clearing out nearby ghouls at the REPCONN test site.

Tips

  • You can permanently acquire Craig Boone as a combat companion by solving the "One for My Baby" quest and leading the guilty party in front of the dinosaur at night.
