Fallout 76 Burning Springs adds TV’s Ghoul to the mix in December

Who needs new Fallout when you can get an expansion instead?

Fallout 76 Burning Springs will add The Ghoul from Prime Video’s Fallout TV series alongside an entirely new region, Ohio, in December of this year. Better still, Walton Goggins will feature in-game, reprising his television role.

 “Fans of the Fallout franchise, from the classic video games to the Prime Video television series, will feel right at home in Fallout 76’s new Burning Springs region,” Bethesda said in a statement.

“Journey across a war-torn desert landscape, battle vicious Deathclaws and bloodthirsty raiders, and take on bounties from The Ghoul – voiced by his television series actor Walton Goggins. Through rewards, players can even equip themselves with The Ghoul’s gun as seen in the show.”

The content also will let players explore a post-nuclear Ohio, adding new characters and factions.

“This map includes new characters like the Rust King, an intelligent Super Mutant who players will need to work with across Burning Springs, as well as locations, public events, workshops, and even a wild local menace called the Rad Hog, which can become a C.A.M.P. Pet for those brave enough to tame it.”

The Ghoul will be added to Fallout 76‘s PTS in early October, followed by a full release later in December of this year.

Fallout 76 is out now on Windows PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, PS4, and PS5; expect Burning Springs in December. Fallout Season 2 debuts on 17 December, with new episodes following weekly.
