Fallout fever is still going strong around the globe, with Fallout 4, New Vegas, and Fallout 76 experiencing a resurgence in popularity. Recently, Fallout 76 set a new record for concurrent users on Steam, surpassing its previous numbers.
According to SteamDB, the 2018 action RPG – which made its way to Steam in 2020 – saw a peak of 66,045 simultaneous players, marking the highest number of concurrent users the game has ever had.
Prior to this weekend, Fallout 76 had a concurrent player record of around 40,000. This milestone was achieved amidst the excitement surrounding Amazon’s successful Fallout TV series. Additionally, the game is accessible to Xbox Game Pass subscribers at no extra cost.
Unfortunately for fans eagerly awaiting Fallout: London, a DLC-sized mod for Fallout 4, the release has been delayed once again. Initially scheduled for April 23, 2024, the mod’s lead developer, Dean Carter, revealed that the long-anticipated next-gen update for Fallout 4 – launching just two days after London’s planned release date – threatens to overshadow Team Folon’s four years of hard work.
In case you missed it, Amazon has officially renewed the Fallout TV series for a second season. The show’s executive producers, Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy of Kilter Films, expressed their enthusiasm for continuing to explore the post-apocalyptic world of Fallout.
