Bethesda has announced that Fallout 76 is available to play for free until December 23 to commemorate the release of Fallout season 2. The first episode of the second season is available to stream now on Prime Video.
Recently, Bethesda released the latest expansion for 76, titled Burning Springs, and confirmed that the game will release for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S early next year. In Burning Springs, Fallout 76 players may explore a new desert biome located in post-nuclear Ohio, where an intelligent Super Mutant known as The Rust King rules over deathclaws and raiders.
Players can head to a local watering hole to meet a gunslinger giving out Bounty Hunts—The Ghoul from the Fallout TV series on Prime Video. Complete Bounty Hunts to earn more daring challenges and earn rewards like caps, legendary items, and unique mods. What’s more, there will be two new public events. Further, players can aid the Rust King’s Beastmaster and Deathclaws in “Gearing Up” and protect the citizens of Highwaytown from swarms of Radscorpions and Stingwings in “Sinkhole Solutions!.” All of this new content will be free in the Burning Springs update.

The cast includes Ella Purnell as Lucy MacLean, Aaron Moten as Maximus, Walton Goggins as Cooper Howard/The Ghoul, Moises Arias as Norm MacClean, and Kyle MacLachlan as Hank MacClean.
