Get ready to face a brand-new endgame activity with the launch of Fallout 76: Gleaming Depths. Now available for free for Fallout 76 players across all platforms, Gleaming Depths marks the highly anticipated Raids, where players will descend underground into a former Enclave laboratory where cutting-edge research on Ultracite once promised to reshape Appalachia. Now abandoned and overrun, teams of four will need sharp builds, smart strategies, and scores of teamwork to survive the journey below.

As part of this update, players will encounter new enemies including a new boss – the biggest yet, of any Fallout game – The Ultracite Terror, a mutated monster lurking in the depths. With relentless enemies and challenging encounters, there’s plenty to do as players fight to survive formidable foes, face deadly challenges, and unravel the mysteries of this terrible subterranean operation.

Great challenges bring great rewards as the Legendary System expands to 4-Stars, with new 4-Star Legendary weapons, armor, and mods earned from the Gleaming Depths raid. But that’s not all – Gleaming Depths also debuts Player Titles and C.A.M.P. Pets, so you can flaunt your raid success with your well-earned nickname and come home to a purrfect new friend.

Launching alongside Gleaming Depths is Season 19: The Scientific Forge. Players will explore the Enclave, a deep-state faction comprised by AI supercomputer M.O.D.U.S. driven to rebuild America through science, earning technologically trendy in-game rewards.
