Bethesda released a bulky update of around 20GB for Fallout 76, mainly fixing game bugs. After experiencing a surge in players, Fallout 76's developer is now paying more attention to the game and releasing patches to improve its gameplay and overall experience further.
Fallout 76 is a prequel to the Fallout series and the sole online-only game. The game was released in 2018, receiving mixed reviews from critics and initially selling less than its predecessors, Fallout 4 and Fallout: New Vegas.
However, after the Fallout TV series gained traction, all games saw a surge in their player numbers. Fallout 76 marked over 1 million consecutive players, showing that the online game is busier than ever.
This return to success prompted Bethesda to take a closer look at the game and fix various bugs in a new update for Fallout 76.
The update is massive, weighing about 20 GB on consoles. The bug fixes are highly varied, from standardizing the status and description of the Father Winter Helmet equipment to fixing the Sins of the Father quest, which could be blocked depending on the player's choice.
