As we’ve already reported, Wastelanders will be the biggest free update for Fallout 76 since launch. Also, you can find below its key features.
- New Main Quest and Revamped Original Main Quest. Uncover the secrets of West Virginia by playing through an all-new main quest as well as a revamped original main quest line – with friends or solo – starting from the moment you leave Vault 76. New and veteran players alike will take on new missions, explore new locations and fight with (or against) the new faces that have made their long-awaited return to West Virginia.
- Human NPCs. Befriend or betray new neighbours who have come to rebuild, and experience Appalachia through the eyes of its residents.
- New Creatures and Gear. Take down newly mutated creatures finding their way to the region and earn the highest tier of weapons and armor.
- Choices and Reputation. Alter the fates of those you meet with classic dialogue trees. Decisions affect your standing with each faction through an all-new reputation system.

Kinda a bummer but I totally get it. I hope its smooth when it comes out
Name one time anything related to Fallout 76 has been smooth.
haha so true! just seems like they got the pieces in place here for a solid game now.
Now they need to add offline mode to play SP without seeing all the dumb teenagers running around
wonder how much this is going to cost on steam
Knowing Fraud Howard and Bethesda, they’re too busy removing
featuresbugs and addingbugsfeatures.Kill it already!
You know what I can completely understand why they’re delaying it, I still doubt it will be any good, buy right now a delay is expected for a lot of things. The wastelanders update isn’t worth really risking people for, in most cases that is true but this is Fallout 76 so it’s especially true.
