Bethesda just announced more details about its latest entry into the Fallout franchise. Fallout 76 is going to be an online-based, open-world, survival game where every person you encounter in the game is an actual person. The game is scheduled to come out on November 14th and instead of pulling hundreds or thousands of players, it’s going to pull in dozens—which makes sense since this is a post-apocalyptic game after all.
Serving as a prequel to the entire series, Fallout 76 takes place in West Virginia and follows survivors of the nuclear apocalypse as they exit bunker, Vault 76. You’ll be tasked to rebuild your town—and the entire country—after Reclamation Day in year 2076. You will be able to take over nuclear launch facilities to launch missiles against rival gangs or unknown territories. There are six distinct West Virginia regions in the game and a CAMP (Construction Assembly Mobile Platform) system is in place to make it easier to build shelters while on the go.
