Fallout fans surprised with huge new expansion you can download today

Fallout 76 is a near-perfect example of how a bad game can become a great one with a fanbase willing to criticise and a dev team willing to listen.

It’s like the story with No Man’s Sky, where the game started off dull, uninteresting and at times broken, but has since evolved into a legendary title that continues to bring new content to the table, hopefully the same can be said for PlayStation’s Concord one day…

We’re just two days away from the launch of Astro Bot on PlayStation, and it’s looking like it’ll be the best game on PS5 yet

Over the past few years Fallout 76 has been regularly updated with new expansions, almost all of which have been free, and added new items to the sandbox, quests and new areas to explore.

The latest update is titled Fallout 76: Milepost Zero, and while it’s not as exciting as Skyline Valley it brings a lot of good stuff to the table.

The update is centred around the Caravan Trading Company, which your character will soon become part of as you attempt to set up a trade line between the base game area and the Skyline Valley DLC area.

This is a brand-new quest that should keep you busy for a while, and introduce you to some of the new features and changes brought with the expansion.

Combat has been tweaked to be more enjoyable, not that Fallout combat wasn’t enjoyable to begin with but it could be a bit stiff at times, so that’s a nice change.

Also introduced is Legendary Crafting, allowing you to piece together a number of legendary items that you’d have otherwise had to farm to get your hands on.

Finally there’s a new feature for your C.A.M.P called Best Builds, which you can learn more about through Bethesda’s official update article.

The Fallout 76: Milepost Zero update is available now for all platforms, giving you more reason than ever to try out the game if you haven’t already.
