Kotaku reached out to the person who nuked Phil's camp.

“It’s not much too it I’ve been planning to catch him for a while now to see if he would agree to a fight,” user real1090jake told Kotaku over Twitter DMs. “Trying to take him down was just a personal goal for me after I finished the main quest line.” He shared some additional screenshots from the encounter which has been weeks in the making. “The Big General, Phil better not let me catch him,” real1090jake tweeted back in April.
Real1090jake immediately took credit in the comments. “Guilty,” he wrote back with shrug emoji. Attached was additional evidence, including a screenshot of Spencer waving to him and a brief video clip of the the exec’s campsite shrouded in radioactive fog. “He was the final boss in my eyes,” real1090jake told Kotaku. “In a RPG I prefer to be the bad guy.”
He said he’d been working toward the goal of dropping a nuke on Spencer since completing Fallout 76's main questline last month. “He jumps around the map because he’s always immediately crowded by players,” real1090snake said. “I honestly just wanted my 1v1 but he wouldn’t attack me back he waved and did a couple of hearts when I caught him alone.”
While the timing has made the episode meme fodder for gamers dunking on a brand that’s currently having one of the worst weeks in its history, real1090snake wasn’t trying to make any sort of statement about the status of Xbox or the recent layoffs. “I joked about attacking him because he hurt our feelings...[but] it’s been my mission weeks before,” he said.
Instead it was more about embracing role-play in the wasteland and chasing a new meta objective. There’s no actual Xbox achievement for nuking Phil Spencer but if there were it would probably be one of the rarest in the platform’s history. “This was a calculated attack lol I have no beef with Phil,” real1090snake tweeted last night. “Phil’s cool Fallout 76 is cool.”
