Fallout 76's
Wild Appalachia update has been delayed, but thankfully not by much. Bethesda announced today that the release of
Wild Appalachia's content will be delayed by one day and will now arrive on March 13. The developer didn't offer any specific reason, only that it needed "a little more time to brew."
Wild Appalachia is the first batch of content to release for
Fallout 76 as part of Bethesda's big plans for 2019. It includes two new quests, eagerly awaited features, a seasonal event, and the new Survival game mode. The new content will be rolled out periodically over the next few months. Here's what's in store for players.
-
New Quests: Shear Terror! – Uncover the ‘encryptid’ secrets of Appalachia in a new series of quests and encounters to separate monsters from myths.
-
New Quests: Ever Upwards – Journey to the deepest reaches of the woods with new stories for the legendary Pioneer Scouts. Earn merit badges, climb the ranks, and earn a customizable backpack for increased utility.
-
New Features: Legendary Vendor and Scrapping – Locate the mysterious Purveyor to exchange and scrap your unwanted legendary items for new legendary gear. For every star rating on a legendary item you scrap, increase your chances to get the legendary weapon or armor of your dreams.
-
New Features: C.A.M.P. Decorating, Player Vending, Functional Camera – Use items from your stash to decorate your C.A.M.P. Build vending machines and flag items for sale. Simply set your prices and walk away to continue your adventures in Appalachia, being sure to capture all your favorite memories using the new functional camera. The vending machines do all the work, you just need to count the caps.
-
New Features: Brewing and Distilling – Go on a new quest to discover the secrets of the forbidden brew Nukashine and bring the party back to your C.A.M.P with new brewing and distilling systems and recipes.
-
New Seasonal Event: Fasnacht Parade – Chase away Old Man Winter and quicken the coming of spring with the ancient festival of Fasnacht! Join the celebration and complete this new limited-time event to earn unique rewards in the form of festive Fasnacht Masks.
-
New Game Mode: Survival – This all-new game mode brings a higher-stakes PvP experience with fewer restrictions, increased rewards, and new challenges plus all the original content of Adventure Mode.
Looking even further ahead, Bethesda has two more planned content drops for 2019:
Nuclear Winter (summer 2019) and
Wastelanders (fall 2019).
Nuclear Winter will add a new game mode, vault raids, and Legendary Players feature. Not much is known about Wastelanders except that it is considered the "most ambitious update" for
Fallout 76, offering a new main questline, new factions, new events, features, and surprises.
Fallout 76 is now available on Xbox One, PS4, and PC.
