Fallout 76 has come a long way since it was released in 2018 and for evidence, look no further than the 2021 roadmap, which includes a bevy of future free updates that will expand the multiplayer game with new features.
First come the updates this spring. The Locked and Loaded update will include the ability to select different S.P.E.C.I.A.L. loadouts, additional C.A.M.P. slots, mannequins, presumably for decor and not friendship, and an expansion to Daily Ops, which is the game's challenge system for players who like to spend time in its world regularly. Players who own Fallout 76 on the Bethesda.net launcher can test out all these new features and more in the current iteration of the PTS right now. The team is teasing more to uncover as well. "Additionally, we hope you haven’t packed away all your snow gear just yet as Armor Ace returns, this time in a fierce battle against Commissioner Chaos and the Yukon Five! Season 4 brings all-new rewards to the Scoreboard, from cosmetics, to consumables and everything in-between."
This summer, the Steel Reign update will conclude the Brotherhood of Steel storyline. The update will bring about more quests, locations, NPCs, and "powerful new rewards." Along with that, Legendary Crafting comes to The Wasteland. As for the rest of the year, Bethesda has taken to teasing what's to come with fewer specifics. We've included that below for your theory-crafting.
