Fallout 76’s latest patch notes are out. The game will be updated on all platforms, and here is everything that is changing.
Fallout 76 is getting patched on Xbox, the Xbox PC store, Steam, and PlayStation today. Version 1.7.23.11 has hundreds of updates and bug fixes, all listed below. Fallout 76 patch notes tend to be pretty long, so kick back and grab a warm drink if you’re going to read them all.
The game originally launched last generation to critical and commercial derision. Both fans and critics bemoaned the game’s lack of NPCs, a staple for the series. Bethesda Game Studios has repeatedly patched the game over the ensuing years. It’s safe to say that the title is now in a state that fans love, outside of the lack of cross-progression and play.
