Fallout 76 Steel Dawn Update Coming December 1st

While I’m still firmly stuck into Elder Scrolls Online, it’s clear that Fallout 76 has been walking the road to redemption ever since its difficult launch. Their latest update look set to improve the game again, bringing in a new questline, locations and gear. Of course, you also get a lot of other content, patches, fixes and other improvements too.

Steel Dawn

Steel Dawn is the first chapter in the new Brotherhood of Steel questline, free for Fallout 76 players. Paladin Leila Rahmani and her troops have arrived from California to establish a new Appalachian chapter. Work with or against the other Factions to achieve success. Visit settlements populated with new NPCs and unlock powerful weapons and armor from the Brotherhood arsenal. Join in their mission to rebuild society and aid in securing valuable technology – but only you can determine how it will be used. Coming December 1, 2020.

Check out the launch trailer below. Seriously, this new content does look pretty awesome! You can’t ignore the joy of a set of power armour.
