Bethesda today announced plans for next week’s PAX East Event, which has plenty of news to add to the Wastelanders expansion. There is also a new Double XP event on the agenda.
Fallout 76 development team members will be on stage on Friday, February 28, at 8:00 p.m. CET, to take a closer look at the upcoming Wastelanders update. Jeff Gardiner, Ferret Baudoin, Mark Tucker and Nate Purkeypile will then provide you with a bit of Wastelanders gameplay and provide insight into the design and aesthetics of the new content.
Part of the presentation includes how Appalachia has changed with the arrival of humans, a few of the characters are introduced, new weapons are shown and much more. A special podcast is also planned, see trailer below.
Patch 17.5 and Double XP
