Bethesda has unveiled the exciting details of Fallout 76 Season 20, dubbed "Glow of the Ghoul." This update introduces a revolutionary new mechanic where players can transform into ghouls, offering a fresh and immersive gameplay experience. As ghouls, players gain total immunity to radiation, which uniquely serves as a healing factor rather than a threat. However, this transformation can lead to altered interactions, as certain in-game factions may become hostile toward ghouls.
Available to players at level 50 and above, the ghoul transformation removes the need for basic survival elements like hunger and thirst. Instead, it introduces a novel mechanic: managing feral progression and radiation accumulation. Higher radiation levels unlock special perks, adding a strategic layer to your gameplay. Moreover, players can enhance their C.A.M.P. setups with thematic radioactive aesthetics, fully embracing the ghoul lifestyle. For those who wish to revert to their human form, the option is always available, ensuring a flexible and dynamic gameplay experience.
Scheduled to launch on March 18, the "Glow of the Ghoul" update is set to transform how players interact with the wasteland in Fallout 76, offering new challenges and opportunities to explore.
