The developers at Bethesda have been pushing DLC for Fallout 76 at a consistent rate, with previous additions including new events, stories, weapons, and more. The 2023 season is officially kicking off today with Rip Daring’s Cryptid Hunt. As the cryptid enemies grow stronger, you will experience new threats and even greater dangers including new mutated events. The developers have even been so kind as to reveal the new roadmap for the first half of the year.

For those who haven’t been playing Fallout 76 on PC, the Public Test Server has been allowing players to access new mutated events, which are set to go live with the Rip Daring Cryptid Hunt. These mutated events will increase the difficulty of these challenges by introducing new obstacles to overcome such as resistant, volatile, and toxic enemies that are sure to give any vault dweller a run for their money. Completing these events will grant everyone who participated with Mutated Packages that give special rewards like legendary weapons, meds, and rare plans.
