Fallout 76 might have had a rocky launch, but it’s nice to know that Bethesda didn’t abandon the game. The two-year-old game suffered from many problems, and thankfully most of them have now been addressed by the devs. The game has received tons of post-launch support. Just yesterday, the game received yet another update.
The August 18 Hotfix patch added a new public event into the game. The event, A Colossal Problem, will let players fight the legendary Wendigo Colossus. The event will allow up to eight players to party up, with the enemy located deep inside the Monongah Mine.
That’s not all, as the small update also fixed tons of bugs and improved the performance of the game. Settler Forager Allies will give correct Daily Quests to the player and solid walls can be replaced with doorway walls.
Right now the patch is only live for PC, but the console versions of the patch should release soon. You can check out the complete patch notes of the update below.
