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

Bethesda has just lifted the curtain on Fallout 76 Season 20, aptly named "Glow of the Ghoul." This thrilling update introduces a groundbreaking feature: players can now transform into ghouls, opening up a whole new dimension of gameplay with unique advantages and challenges. Once you embrace your inner ghoul at level 50, you'll gain total immunity to radiation, which not only neutralizes the threat but also acts as a healing mechanism. However, be prepared for a shift in social dynamics, as some in-game factions might view ghouls with hostility, reshaping your interactions within the game world.

The ghoul transformation does away with mundane survival concerns like hunger and thirst, but it introduces a fresh gameplay mechanic: managing your feral progression and radiation accumulation. As you accumulate more radiation, you'll unlock special perks, adding a layer of strategy to your adventures. Furthermore, you can give your C.A.M.P. a makeover with new radioactive-themed aesthetics, fully immersing yourself in your ghoul persona. If you ever feel the urge to return to human form, you can do so at any time, offering you the ultimate flexibility in how you choose to explore the wasteland.

Mark your calendars for March 18, as the "Glow of the Ghoul" update is set to launch, promising to revolutionize your experience in the world of Fallout 76.
