Following the show’s success, including confirmation that a second season is on the way, the games have seen their playercounts skyrocket, with Fallout 76, often considered the worst in the series, getting a new lease on life because of it.
Fallout 76 was plagued with problems at launch, including some of those classic Bethesda bugs we all expect from one its new releases.
The game has since been fixed with copious amounts of updates, some of which add new in-game content for free or at a price.
Now the latest update has dropped, and it’s one fans won’t want to miss as it includes a variety of bug fixes and quality-of-life improvements with it.
Stand out features include improvements to the UI, an option to buy all of a particular item from vendors, as well as some changes to crafting to make the experience smoother, and sometimes actually work.
The update is available for all platforms, including PCs via Steam, and like the ones before it it’s completely free.
In other news, Fallout 4 has received a similar boost in popularity thanks to the new-gen update that primes it for Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5, though things were spoiled a bit by the update breaking mods, as well as not being available for PlayStation Plus subscribers.
The Fallout series is in a really good place right now, and hopefully Fallout 5 delivers an experience worth waiting for as a result.
