Fallout 76's Season 20 Adds Ghoul Transformation and New Gameplay Mechanics

Bethesda's latest announcement unveils Fallout 76 Season 20: "Glow of the Ghoul," a thrilling update introducing a game-changing ghoul transformation. Starting at level 50, players can embrace their inner ghoul, gaining complete radiation immunity—radiation will actually heal you! This transformative power, however, comes with a twist: some factions will become hostile towards ghouls, adding a new layer of strategic interaction.

While hunger and thirst become obsolete in ghoul form, a new challenge arises: managing feral progression and radiation accumulation. Higher radiation levels unlock unique perks, adding depth and strategic choices to your gameplay. Furthermore, players can customize their C.A.M.P. with radioactive-themed decorations, creating a truly unique wasteland haven. And for those who miss their humanity, reverting to human form is always an option.

Launching March 18th, "Glow of the Ghoul" promises a radical shift in how you experience the Fallout 76 wasteland.
