Players who are just picking up are luck because the game's best event is about to return to help all those newcomers become more accustomed the zany world of the Appalachian Wasteland. Over the course of 's many seasons of content drops, one event in particular has returned on several occasions due to the overwhelmingly positive reception its garnered from the game's community. Now that Bethesda's open-world survival MMO is more popular than ever thanks to the Prim Video adaptation, it's time to introduced those fresh-faced fans to the Zeta aliens.
Per Bethesda's latest patch notes, the «Invaders From Beyond» event will run from April 30 through to May 14, allowing players to teamup and push back another force of extraterrestrials that's trying to invade the remnants of the United States. Completing quests associated with the events can reward players with some unique sci-fi themed loot and while many of the items will be familiar, there are some new inclusions to tempt veterans. These include a teal Hazmat Suit, plans for an Alien Head Lamp, an Alien Table, an Alien Target Practice Sheet, and the Glowing Flatwoods Monster Lamp.
Aside from the aforementioned goodies, the event will also add several new items to the Atomic Shop, including the Flatwoods Monster Power Armor Paint and the dangerous Alien Laser Door to keep out all those pesky intruders.

The Zeta Aliens have been a staple of the franchise ever since the series started and have featured in many games, usually as mere Easter eggs. The most significant role was in the DLC which saw players beamed up into the titular spaceship and forced to fight for their freedom against a small armor of annoyed Zetas. While it's a comparatively silly expansion compared to some of the game's other add-ons, it does result in some of the most unique items and weapons.

Plenty of substantial content updates driven by the community and feedback from players have resulted in an experience that manages to maintain a steady audience. The success of Prime Video's series has only increased the game's popularity as its current player base is higher than it has ever been.

Game developer Mob Entertainment is partnering with Legendary Entertainment to create a movie based on its toy factory horror hit, Poppy Playtime.
Fallout has its fair share of terrifying, monstrous, and downright disturbing enemies for players to come across throughout the series, whether it be the lethal Deathclaws or the humble Bloatfly. However, there are some enemies from the series that have a special place in the hearts of fans due to how incredibly annoying they are to run into across the Wasteland, whether it be due to how dangerous they are, or just how much they creep you out.
An official description of Fallout 3 on Steam has caused one fan to question whether the events of the game are actually happening within its world or if they're all part of a simulation within a simulation. While the events of Fallout 3 contain some pretty mind-bending content, this theory makes those events seem even more meta.
Skyrim was 2011. Fallout 4 was 2015. Starfield was 2023. Development cycles are growing longer all across the industry, but for Bethesda in particular, it's felt like the company has really struggled to create a consistent pipeline — especially in the last decade or so. This is even more apparent when you factor in projects like The Elder Scrolls 6, which was barely a concept when it was first announced in 2018.
The Fallout 76 Invaders from Beyond event has returned, bringing the alien menace back to Appalachia. The latest iteration of the popular activity arrives just as Fallout 76 is blowing up in popularity across both PC and consoles thanks to Amazon's Fallout TV show.

As the series enjoys renewed interest and popularity across all its games, largely thanks to the breakout success of the TV series, it could be the perfect time for the series to return to its classic style of gameplay. Having made the shift from the series' classic style in the transition from to, modern games have largely found success — but the popularity of certain other games on the market could show demand for the old way as well.
Fallout hype is truly inescapable at this point, with the TV show driving popularity and Fallout 4 even getting its long-awaited next-gen update (even if the latter has been considered rather disappointing by many). One way or another, everyone is trying to live their best post-nuclear apocalypse life right now, and this enormous mod for Fallout 4 looks like it'll enable us to do just that.
has much to offer beyond the main campaign, giving you plenty to do even after you complete the game's main story. Exploring the wastelands to discover missed environments, finding skipped collectibles, and taking on the various DLC are just a few of your options once the credits roll. The expansive world gives you a lot to do, but only if you are willing to search for additional content.
is known for having plenty of factions vying for control of the irradiated ruins of the Commonwealth and while one of them may feel relatively useless, a new mod makes them significantly more effective at taking control. Waking up as the Sole Survivor of Vault 111 feels especially intimidating when the entire world has gone to ruin but one group of fighters, The Minutemen, is simply looking to make a difference and help their fellow Americans. Unfortunately, their aspirations are slightly out of their reach given that the player needs to accomplish everything for them.
