Many significant facts about the “Gleaming Depths” update that will be released for Fallout 76 in December were disclosed by the developer during Bethesda’s Fallout Day livestream on October 23. Some of the points mentioned were about some 4-star legendary effects, a new boss called the Ultracite Terror, and more. The Fallout fan base is super hyped for this update in the same way that they were hyped for the Fallout: London Mod.
Now, let’s get into the thick of this news and learn what we can about this huge Fallout 76 update!
Fallout Day Was the Day the Fallout 76 Update Announcement Was Made
Every year on October 23, 2077, Fallout Day is held to honor the beginning of the Great War within the franchise’s setting. Bethesda’s livestream drew millions of players eager to learn about the details of the next “Gleaming Depths” release.
Everyone was hoping to find out more regarding the game’s mechanics, like how Fallout 76’s Ghoul transformation process will function. People also wanted to know what new features will be added to the game in the upcoming months.
A number of elements regarding the Gleaming Depths patch were both disclosed and elaborated upon during Fallout Day’s broadcast. Players will encounter a wide range of bosses in the update, including the Ultracite Terror, Bethesda warned.
The Ultracite Terror is the biggest boss in the game thus far and is said to be a huge mutant snake. A new level of 4-star Legendary effects inside Gleaming Depths was also mentioned, along with numerous challenging encounters that would challenge even the most skilled players.
The setting of Gleaming Depths is going to be an abandoned enclave that had been used to research Ultragenesis—the act of dispersing the valuable mineral Ultracite across the planet for a variety of uses. It’s unclear if there will be additional information on this to discover in the future.
Fallout Day Provided Everyone With Valuable Information About the "Gleaming Depths"
Throughout the game’s existence, numerous changes have been made, some of which gamers have embraced and others not. Fallout 76 update 2024 is no different and is pretty much subject to scrutiny by the players once it’s released.
A significant modification to Fallout 76’s Legendary crafting system was made in “Milepost Zero“, the game’s last update. This permitted players to obtain Legendary Particles by discarding Legendary equipment.
Among many other things, Gleaming Depths promises to bring some potent Perks like Slayer. This will be highly helpful to most players since it supposedly increases damage towards Legendary and Raid foes by 50%.
Since the game has been available for over five years, players have had ample opportunity to hone their abilities and try out the different possibilities available to them. In order to keep from being disturbed, several ardent gamers have constructed their own luxurious Fallout 76 Wasteland lodges with intricate defenses.
The additional possible outcomes that will be unleashed as a result of this degree of innovation make the “Gleaming Depths” update an extremely intriguing prospect.
Here’s a teaser trailer of the Gleaming Depths during QuakeCon 2024:
When Will the Gleaming Depths Come to Players?
Gamers have begun counting down the days till the December release of “Gleaming Depths.” It remains to be seen if the update will be sufficient to satisfy players and possibly even ease the tensions around the numerous concerns about cross-play in Fallout 76. Players can only hope for the best and continue to enjoy the game for the time being.
In the meantime, Fallout 76 players can check out the Fallout Classic Collection offered free by Epic Games (this was a limited-time event, by the way, and these games were only free from August 29 – Sept. 05). Since the gameplay for these classics is very different from Bethesda’s Fallout series, it could offer players a new and engaging challenge.
