On Tuesday, September 15 at 10am ET, Fallout 76 will be undergoing maintenance on all platforms to deploy The Slasher update.For this update we are executing a repackaging of the game for all platforms to reduce the game’s overall file size. This means that the download size for The Slasher update will be larger than usual for all platforms but once downloaded the file size will be smaller than it is currently.

Fallout 76 продолжает приносить Bethesda серьёзные деньги, несмотря на многолетние споры вокруг игры и периодические заявления о том, что проект якобы умирает. Согласно свежему отчёту аналитической компании Newzoo, MMO заняла пятое место среди самых прибыльных RPG на консолях в первой половине 2026 года. Данные охватывают период с января по июнь и шесть крупнейших игровых рынков. В рейтинге учитывались пять основных жанров, а Fallout 76 оказалась среди таких заметных конкурентов, как Diablo IV, Genshin Impact и Pokémon Legends: Z-A. Первое место в консольном чарте RPG заняли Pokémon FireRed и

Appalachian Adventurers are in for a Fall full of FRIGHT, as the legendary name of the Pint-Sized Slasher is taken up by a murderous lunatic and his cadre of Slasher fanatics.“The Slasher” is a frightening experience that unravels over the weeks spanning our Fall updates. Players will need to hunt for clues, dig up unmarked graves, and fight off fanatics INFESTING the map. Finally, a confrontation with the “Pint-Sized” imposter himself, where players have a chance to earn a unique Power Armor set as well as a new instrument of murder, the “Super Slasher.”These activities are layered over the t

Last week we released our Mid-Season update which included some changes to Infestations. We were happy to see that many of you appreciated the more visible Server Message and the reduced search area. It’s clear though that we over tuned the boss’s health without increasing the rewards enough for the extra time/resources spent.We want to do what we can to make the experience more enjoyable for everyone today and also give you a heads-up about more changes we have coming in the Fall update.Happening NowDecreased Infestations Boss HealthWe are lightly decreasing boss HP.

A new Fallout 76 update has hit the Public Test Server, and it's one we've been waiting for basically since the survival game first launched. Animal companions have long been a core part of the Fallout series, but they've always been absent from F76 - sure, you do get real players joining you on your adventures, but they're not quite as cool. After much teasing, your Fallout 76 camp pets (themselves a relatively recent addition) can now come along on your journeys across the Appalachian Wasteland, and judging by the menus, it's just the start of what we can look forward to.
