Bethesda Announces Fallout 76 – Rumored to Be Survival RPG
Bethesda announced one month before the E3 of this year, Fallout 76, the new major title in the Fallout series with a new teaser trailer. In said trailer we can see a common shot made with Bethesda’s Fallout announcements, as the video begins with a wireless radio playing a country song hinting that the setting of the game, could be in Virginia. The camera then pans out to show what appears to be a Fallout Vault on Reclamation day. After that we can see the main character with a vault suit with the vault number 76 on his back and a Pip-boy device on his wrist.
Check out the teaser of Fallout 76:
The last major title in the Fallout series, was Fallout 4, that was released at the end of 2015, and it introduced gamers to an apocalyptic version of Boston. Bethesda then continued to support the game for some time with several large expansions and small add-ons, culminating with the “Nuka World” expansion in 2016.
The Fallout series also expanded to mobile with the strategy focused experience in Fallout Shelter in 2016, and the game is still going strong with regular updates. This free-to-play mobile game eventually was launched on PC and Xbox One as well.
Fallout 76 will be only one of the many major reveals that will be on the E3 2018 in June. Bethesda also showed before this years’ E3, the post-apocalyptic shooter Rage 2.
Kotaku said in an article on their website:
“Originally prototyped as a multiplayer version of Fallout 4 with the goal of envisioning what an online Fallout game might look like, Fallout 76 has evolved quite a bit over the past few years, those sources said. It will have quests and a story, like any other game from Bethesda Game Studios, a developer known for meaty RPGs like Skyrim. It will also feature base-building—just like 2015’s Fallout 4—and other survival-based and multiplayer mechanics, according to those sources. One source cautioned that the gameplay is rapidly changing, like it does in many online “service” games, but that’s the core outline.
The game is named after the series’ Vault 76, which has been mentioned in both Fallout 3 and Fallout 4. According to Fallout lore, Vault 76 was meant to open just 20 years after the nuclear war, allowing for a far less civilized setting than previous games. Fallouts 3 and 4, which are full of cities and settlements, both take place over 200 years after the war, after much of the population has had time to reconstruct human civilization. Fallout 76 will feel very different. As the narrator of the trailer says: “When the fighting is stopped, and the fallout has settled, you must rebuild.”
