Dust off your favorite set of power armor; in four short months, you\u2019ll be on an adventure through the rolling, mutant-infested hills of post-nuclear West Virginia as Fallout 76 comes to PC, PS4 and XBOX on November 14, 2018.<\/span><\/p>\n

Fallout 76 is easily one of the most-hyped entries in Bethesda\u2019s popular series, and also one of the least-understood — both thanks in part to the notable transition from the familiar sprawling single-player RPG to an even larger<\/em><\/a> and dynamic, online world.<\/span><\/p>\n

What we\u00a0know so far:<\/span><\/h3>\n

Since the <\/span>game\u2019s announcement<\/span><\/a> in late Spring of this year, questions have been flying about what Fallout 76 will be like, and what kinds of changes can be expected from previous games in the series. <\/span><\/p>\n

Timeline and Premise:<\/strong> From the start, Bethesda has been clear that the game will be a prequel of sorts, taking place in 2102, a short 25 years after the Earth was devastated by nuclear war, and many decades prior to the preceding titles. The residents of Vault 76 (a nigh-sacred place referenced in previous Fallout entries) will leave safety on a mission to rebuild and recolonize the world.<\/span><\/p>\n

Given that there are <\/span>four games of post-nuclear hardship<\/span><\/a> that take place after Fallout 76, the jury\u2019s still out on their success with that.<\/span><\/p>\n

Setting:<\/strong> As stated above, the game world exists in a space approximately four times the geographic size of Fallout 4 and, at least at launch, will be set exclusively among the country roads of John Denver\u2019s West Virginia (the inclusion of this track in the introduction trailer was virtually obligatory).<\/span><\/p>\n
