To acquire Bunker Hill as a settlement in Fallout 4, you primarily need to engage with the Institute questline and complete a specific main quest related to the location.
Unlocking Bunker Hill
The most direct way to gain control over Bunker Hill as a settlement is by successfully completing a critical mission that involves the location.
Follow these steps to unlock Bunker Hill:
- Progress the Institute Questline: Advance through the main quests offered by the Institute faction.
- Complete "The Battle of Bunker Hill" Quest: This is a pivotal main quest within the Institute's storyline. Successfully completing it is essential.
- Speak with Kessler: After the completion of "The Battle of Bunker Hill," you must locate and converse with Kessler, one of the key residents of Bunker Hill. During this conversation, you will be able to officially unlock Bunker Hill as a usable settlement, allowing you to establish workshops, build structures, and assign settlers.
By following these steps, Bunker Hill will become available for you to manage, just like other settlements across the Commonwealth, providing a new strategic location for your operations.
