Fallout 76 got off to a very rocky start back in 2018, but it's come a long way. There have been a whole host of expansions, and people absolutely are playing it. But should you? If you're wondering whether Fallout 76 is worth playing in 2025, here's the answer.
Fallout 76 is finally worth playing in 2025, after seven years of free expansions and it actually does some things other games haven't. One recent update adds in the ability to become a ghoul, once you're at a sufficiently high level. There are Fallout 4 mods to let you do this, but Fallout 76 actually has you treated differently because you're now a ghoul.
You'll still need to play the game online, but it feels like a proper Fallout game, with one exception I'll get to later. If single-player Fallout is more your thing, it won't replace Fallout 4 or Fallout: New Vegas . But even so, it's absolutely worth exploring for a while, just to soak in all the lore and the other elements it adds to the Falloutvertse.
Fallout 76 was, initially, a ghost town, with not an NPC in sight. It was horribly incomplete but seven years, it actually feels like a proper Fallout game.
Es hat eine riesige offene Welt, um zu streift, und es hat alle retro-futuristischen Fallen früherer Fallout -Spiele sowie Energiewaffen, seltsame Monster, Gewölbe und so weiter. It introduces a host of new enemies and elements such as the Scorched, and boasts many, many quests to undertake.
Fallout 4’s base crafting might have not been to everyone's taste, but here you can go absolutely wild. Bases aren't just for show, either. You can build your own base and add in machines to sell the items you collect. So, while you're wandering around the wasteland, caps could be piling up at home.
That's in-game currency, I should add – you can't make real money playing Fallout 76 . But if you're feeling devious you can craft Saw -style bases that will kill players. I've fallen foul of a couple and as furious as I was, I have to tip my hat to those players' creativity. Speaking of evil, the game makes you work for it, but you can nuke sections of the main map, which is a neat mechanic.
Wenn Sie sich mit einigen Freunden zusammenschließen und zusammenhalten, gibt es viel Spielraum für Multiplayer -Spielereien und übernehmen das Schlimmste des Ödlands zusammen. Unlike the single-player Fallout 4 , you'll have someone to show your ridiculous costumes to. Even if your friends aren't into Fallout 76 , there you can join up with strangers and conquer the wasteland.
There's more content coming all the time, and unlike The Elder Scrolls Online , every expansion and piece of DLC has been free.

Fallout 76 isn't perfect. There are a few negatives, though far fewer when it first launched. For me, my least favorite thing about the game is seeing bases all over the place. That might seem like an odd gripe given it's a multiplayer game, but it does make the world seem less barren.
Since there are other players around, the VATS system no longer slows down the world, which makes kills less satisfying. Und wenn es um das Basisgebäude geht, ist ein Großteil der super coolen Dinge weggesperrt, sodass Sie oft mahlen müssen, um es freizuschalten (mehr als Ressourcensammeln in Fallout 4 ), und das Spiel ist nicht zu wenig Mikrotransaktionen.
Wondering just what DLC Fallout 76 has received since its launch? Here's every free expansion and DLC Bethesda has added.
The Expeditions expansions add new locations to visit, including The Pitt (previously seen in Fallout 3 ) and Atlantic City. The latter isn't as massive as its name implies but it's still a new place to roam. Der Atomwinter war ein Kampfmodus von Battle Royale, wurde aber im Jahr 2021 entfernt. Das Update des Wastelanders, das kurz nach dem Atomwinter eintraf, fügte schließlich NPCs in das Ödland hinzu.
Letztendlich ist Fallout 76 absolut gelohnt zu spielen, egal ob Sie sich lange nach einem Multiplayer -Fallout sehnt haben oder wenn Sie ein Fallout -Fertigstellungstest sind, hat es viel zu bieten. And given that it's on both Game Pass and PlayStation Plus, you've nothing to lose by stepping into the Appalachian Wasteland.
