That matches up with early rumors, which claim that Fallout 76 started life as a multiplayer prototype for Fallout 4, but evolved into an online survival RPG. When you play the game, you'll be on a map with a dozen or so other players.
Speaking at Bethesda's E3 2018 showcase, game director Todd Howard announced that Fallout 76 is "entirely online," but that isn't to say it's a massively multiplayer game though - it's more like a "shared world" shooter, similar to games like Destiny. You aren't the only vault dweller escaping the confines of an underground bunker to greet the irradiated world - the Vault 76 in Fallout 76 is filled with other characters too - and they're all real people. Fallout 76 is a shared-world survival game that's 'entirely online' The world needs to be huge, too - because you won't be playing Fallout 76 alone. Well, at least more than once: developers recently confirmed that the game would include a "fast travel" section that will enable you to instantly travel to different points in the game world. There might not be vehicles in Fallout 76 (at least none we know of), but you still won't have to walk all the way across its massive map. Howard says the world is huge, diverse and features six distinct regions to explore, each pulling from real culture, locations and even legends from the area.But you won't need to walk everywhere "Set in the hills of West Virginia," he said, "You are one of the first to emerge into a very different and untamed wasteland." And indeed - it is different. In fact, the game world it's set in will be four times larger than Fallout 4, previously the largest game in the series. +18 more See all photos It's the biggest Fallout game ever made!Īccording to Howard, Fallout 76 is the largest Fallout game ever made. "This time, it starts with new lighting, rendering and landscape technology." Fallout 4 has better lighting, and farther viewing distance than any other Fallout game. That better-looking world isn't just the developers adding more trees to the landscape either - Bethesda's Todd Howard says that the game's rendering engine has been given a major overhaul."We always start with the world," He said at E3. It doesn't hurt that the buildings in this version of Fallout have only been standing empty for a few dozen years, either.
Early shots of the game's world shows a landscape dotted with plants and trees of all kinds of colors. That means, well, that it's not as muddy, dull and brown-looking as some of the previous games. The Earth may be poisoned by nuclear fallout, and the future of the planet's flora may be grim - but in Fallout 76, it hasn't been that long since the bombs dropped.
It also means less time has passed since the bombs dropped, which means. And most importantly, the first survivors to start rebuilding society.
That means players in Fallout 76 will be seeing a world ravaged by the aftermath of nuclear war, but not ravaged by time - making them among the first survivors of the Great War.

Previous games in the series mention Vault 76 as one of the earliest bunkers to be opened - a little more than 20 years after the bombs dropped, and Bethesda confirmed that on the stage at E3 2018. Fallout 76 is the latest Fallout adventure, and it's the earliest game in the Fallout timeline.
