Everything included in Fallout 76 June 12 patch
Fallout 76’s significant update on June 12 is a big one, introducing the Skyline Valley region into the game packed with new characters, enemies, and more.
The biggest draw of the latest Fallout 76 update is the ability to travel to a new area in the southern part of the map, Shenandoah. This is the first time a new region has been opened in Fallout 76 since the Bethesda title first launched in October 2018.
Players have already had an opportunity to enjoy the new area in the PTS, which brings 26 new Points of Interest to the map. Alongside this large new zone, players can also enjoy various new experiences, including:
- The opening of Vault 63
- New enemy types, including Electric Ghouls and Threshers
- New Public events
- New questlines
The Skyline Valley update also adds new weapons, armor, and outfits, but you’ll have to wait a little while longer before you can play as a Ghoul. The update also marks the start of season 17 in Fallout 76, bringing new tasks to earn additional rewards.
We’ll update this article when the full Fallout 76 June 12 patch notes have been revealed.
