    Fallout Day 2026: Day 1 — Community, Free Rewards, and Your New Direct Line to the Dev Team

    The countdown is over — Fallout Day 2026 has officially begun, and Day 1 has delivered exactly what the community has been waiting for: fresh rewards, a brand-new dedicated channel hub, and confirmation that this year’s celebration is all about you.

    This isn’t a single broadcast — it’s five days of wasteland joy, running 19–23 October 2026, with something new revealed every single day. Here’s everything that landed on Day 1, and what you can look forward to next.

    Big News: @PlayFallout76 Launches — Direct from Devs to You

    No more digging through mixed feeds or waiting for reposts. Everything from hotfix alerts to deep-dive previews will land here first — and it’s built to listen, too, with polls, fan spotlights, and conversations that help shape what comes next for Appalachia.

  • Mischief Managed! Fallout 76’s Beloved Mischief Night Event is BACK

    Mischief Managed! Fallout 76’s Beloved Mischief Night Event is BACK

    Vault Dwellers, grab your spooky apparel and prep your fireworks—the long-awaited, fan-favourite seasonal event, Mischief Night, has finally returned to Appalachia!

    After years of being locked away due to technical gremlins, Bethesda has completely reworked the event, bringing back the high-energy hijinks with a new location, new objectives, and a huge haul of fantastic new Halloween-themed rewards.

    A Grand Return to Rapidan Camp

    For those who remember the original event at Whitespring, prepare for a fresh, spooky setting. The revamped Mischief Night takes place in the eerie, gorgeously decorated Rapidan Camp in the new Skyline Valley region.

    The event kicks off with your favourite chaotic Eyebot, JES-2R, who is ready to guide you and your fellow vault dwellers on a glorious, post-apocalyptic pranking spree.

    What’s New: The Art of Mayhem

    The core of the event remains the same: complete acts of mayhem and sow chaos to fill the progress bars, but the location and tasks have been completely overhauled for maximum fun:

    • Costume Up! While not strictly required anymore, wearing a costume is still highly encouraged to “speed up progress and receive unique rewards.” If you forgot your ghoul getup, a costume chest is provided at the start of the event.
    • Three Stages of Shenanigans: The event now moves through distinct areas of Rapidan Camp:
      1. Sow Chaos in the Woods: Follow JES-2R, light bonfires, blast fireworks, and take down costumed “Lost” enemies.
      2. Sow Chaos on the Grounds: The mayhem escalates! You’ll be blowing things up, raiding trick-or-treat bowls, tagging walls with graffiti, and forking the lawns.
      3. Sow Chaos on the Cliffs & Finale: The final stretch involves more explosions and fights against Rapidan Robots, culminating in a showdown with a 3-star Aggressotron at a Vertibird landing site.

    Keep that mischief quota filled to secure your loot!

    The Treats: Rare New Rewards

    The rewards are where this returning event truly shines. Mischief Night 2.0 brings a massive list of new, exclusive plans and items that are instantly going to be some of the most sought-after decorations in the game.

    Forget last year’s standard haul—players are now hunting for:

    • C.A.M.P. Goodies:
      • Cauldron Hot Tub: Everyone needs a bubbling, spooky tub for their post-apocalyptic retreat.
      • Skeletal Weapon Rack: A new way to display your favourite legendary weapons.
      • Crooked Metal Fence: Perfect for that haunted yard aesthetic.
      • Deathclaw Gargoyle and Large Deathclaw Gargoyle Statues.
      • Cultist Lamp and Boney Arm Sconce.
      • Hay Bale Throne
    • Apparel and Backpacks:
      • Spooky Scarecrow Headpiece and Outfit
      • Bat Plushie Backpack
      • Scorpion Plushie Backpack
      • Jack-in-the-Box Backpack and Flair

    The full list is huge, and with a short two-week window, you’ll want to run this event as often as possible!

    Don’t Miss Out! Event Dates

    Mischief Night is a limited-time event, so mark your calendars!

    The event runs from October 7th to October 21st. The event pops up as a Public Event on the hour, every hour, so plan your playtime accordingly to maximise your reward runs.

    Whether you’re an original Vault Dweller who missed out on the classic rewards or a new player looking to deck out your C.A.M.P. in the spookiest style, the return of Mischief Night is an absolute treat. Now get out there, cause some trouble, and let us know what amazing rewards you manage to snag!

    Happy Pranking!
