Summary

  • Fallout 76 developers Bethesda have introduced a new fishing feature to the end game action role playing game.
  • Players on the public test server (PTS) can access the feature by going to a new area of the Mire region called Fisherman’s Rest, where three new characters can be found.
  • Players need to start a quest called Casting Off to get their fishing rod, following a Pip-Boy signal in the Mire.
  • Bethesda explains that players will be able to cook and eat fish they catch, use them to gain advantages such as reducing ‘hooking’ time, or trade them with other players.
  • The feature is expected to roll out to the main game in June, following a period of testing and development on the PTS.
  • Fishing features heavily in other games such as Stardew Valley and Sega Bass Fishing.
