With the release of Fallout 76 just over a month away, as you can imagine, there is currently a lot of speculation about the final form the game will take. In fairness to Bethesda, since it was announced last Summer, they haven’t been shy in giving us details. We’ve already seen numerous screenshots and highly-detailed in-game videos released.
