Fallout 76 Skyline Valley update is scheduled for release on June 12th, 2024. This update will bring so many additions to the game, including the map expansion, which is going to be the Shenandoah area and Vault 63.

When the update is released, players will have the opportunity to explore Vault 63, which has been locked since the game started. The vault will soon be open for players and they can uncover the secrets and learn about its mysterious overseer, Hugo Stolz. The vault is also rumored to house a new type of ghoul called “The Lost.”

The Shenandoah Valley is plagued by a constant electrical storm crackling overhead. This anomaly hints at a powerful force at play.

The most exciting news from the Xbox Games Showcase was the announcement that players will finally be able to play as a Ghoul starting in early 2025!

This is a major milestone for the Fallout franchise, as it will be the first time players can experience the game from the perspective of these irradiated beings.

Bethesda Game Studios has confirmed that players will need to reach Level 50 before they can transform into a Ghoul. The exact details of this transformation process are still secret, but it is expected to greatly impact the gameplay. We think that Ghouls will have access to unique perks and abilities, such as increased resistance to radiation and the ability to heal from it.
