Can You Recruit Codsworth As a Companion in Fallout 4?

You can recruit Codsworth as a companion in Fallout 4. He’s one of the first companions you meet upon leaving Vault 111. But there are some criteria to consider before you recruit him, namely:

  • You must reach a specific point in “Out of Time” in Concord. It’s best to complete the quest altogether!
  • Reach Diamond City before visiting Concord.
  • Meet Nick Valentine in Vault 114 before visiting Concord or Diamond City.

If you complete one of these tasks, you may return to Sanctuary, speak with Codsworth again, and ask him to join you on your adventures across the Commonwealth!

What Are Codsworth’s Stats?

You likely want to know all about your traveling companion, right? I would! Here are Codsworth’s stats to consider when fleshing out your build:

  • Strength: 9
  • Perception: 10
  • Endurance: 7
  • Charisma: 7
  • Intelligence: 16
  • Agility: 10
  • Luck: 7

Based purely on these stats, Codsworth is one of the best companions in the game. The only downsides are his movement speed, bulky frame, and the constant noise of his jet engines keeping him aloft.
