The ninth installment in the Fallout series will feature two key distinctions. One, it’ll serve as a prequel, bringing players closer to “the beginning” as ever before. And two, Fallout 76 will be an online multiplayer game where players can team up with up to three friends to explore the vast environment and interact (read: kill) other Fallout 76Â players. With the constant threat of nuclear fallout looming, Fallout 76 looks to be a promising and exciting addition to the Fallout series.
