NEW UPDATE ARRIVING TUESDAY
Tuesday, October 25th we are planning on releasing a new update to Fallout 76. This update will be smaller than some of our larger updates that bring new content into the game. With this update, we’re bringing new items into the Atomic Shop to release over the coming weeks, addressing a number of bugs, and kicking off a brand-new Challenge event for the 25th Anniversary.
We are currently looking to begin maintenance for Fallout 76 at 10:00 a.m. ET on October 25. We will be sure to share update with you in the Bethesda Studios Discord and the Fallout Twitter so that you know precisely when you can log back in.

- Event Start: 12:00 p.m. ET on October 25

Grab your costumes and get ready! It’s time to go Trick or Treating.
Starting October 25, you can hunt down costumed Scorched throughout Appalachia to loot Mystery Candy, Spooky Treat Bags, and of course, legendary items. Track down Scorched at their usual haunts, keep an ear out for their spine-tingling sounds, and you’re bound to find at least a few who are dressed up for Halloween.
In addition, C.A.M.P.s that feature a pumpkin icon on the map are welcoming sweet-toothed trick-or-treaters who are in search of some candy. Don your favorite costume and collect Mystery Candy from Spooky Candy Bowls at other Dwellers’ Haunted Houses. You can also invite trick-or-treaters to your C.A.M.P. by claiming a free Spooky Candy Bowl of your own, which will be available in the Atomic Shop for the duration of the event. Place your Spooky Candy Bowl with Mystery Candy you’ve collected from Spooky Scorched or train station vendors. Whenever you trick-or-treat or give out candy to trick-or-treaters, you’ll earn progress towards Halloween-themed Challenges, which you can complete to earn rewards until November 8.

Moleminer Treasure Hunters have been spotted around Appalachia, searching Legendary loot to add to their collection.

Claim their Moleminer Pails loot for yourself, or purchase pails from any robot vendor.
