A new Fallout Day Broadcast aired earlier today and with it came a decent amount of Fallout-related information. Namely, we got some information on upcoming content for Fallout 76 and a few other odds and ends.
Fallout Day is the day in which Americans ventured underground in the Fallout universe. It is on this day that Bethesda tends to reveal new content or game announcements for Fallout. To that end, Bethesda revealed a bunch of new content coming soon to Fallout 76.
That new content includes a new raid, four-star Legendary gear, C.A.M.P. pets, and the ability to play as a ghoul. Bethesda says that this will be the first time you will get to play as a ghoul in a Fallout game. There will be new playstyles and ghoul-specific Perk cards, plus a new Feral meter that are all unique to ghouls. While you won't have to worry about hunger or thirst as a ghoul, you may find that some factions are just angry at you right from the start.
Raid: Gleaming Depths
In Gleaming Depths, descend into a mysterious underground research laboratory in the Ash Heap where the Enclave once studied radioactive Ultracite. Find out why the laboratory has been abandoned, squad up and face off against the beasts and bots that remain in the radiation-ridden lab in five punishing encounters.
Bring your best friends, weapons, armor and lots of stimpaks because Gleaming Depths is not for the faint of heart. The final battle against the Ultracite Terror will truly test your mettle.
But, with monumental risks come legendary rewards.
Four-Star Legendary Gear
In the Fallout Day Broadcast, we also announced an exciting update to the Legendary Gear system. Now you can earn and craft Four-Star Legendary Gear.
Player Titles
Another addition to Fallout 76, that you can earn by doing anything from completing quests and challenges to taking down the Ultracite Terror, is your player title. Player titles are comprised of two parts that are earned separately and can be combined in a myriad of ways to make your title unique. We look forward to seeing what fun titles you come up with.
C.A.M.P. Pets
Yes, they’re finally here! The adorable feature that you’ve all been clamoring for: C.A.M.P. Pets! With the Gleaming Depths update, you will be able to add a furry friend to your C.A.M.P. To start, we’re adding two pets, a dog and a cat.
These faithful animals hang out at your C.A.M.P. and can interact with special pet furniture, such as a pile of bones for the dog. You can even pet them and customize accessories like their collars.
