"Season 20 of Fallout 76 Introduces Ghoul Transformation and New Mechanics"

Bethesda has just unveiled the thrilling details of Fallout 76 Season 20, dubbed "Glow of the Ghoul," set to launch on March 18. This update introduces a groundbreaking feature where players can transform into ghouls, offering a unique twist to the gameplay experience. As a ghoul, players gain complete immunity to radiation, which now heals them instead of causing harm. However, this transformation comes with its own set of challenges, as certain in-game factions may become hostile, significantly altering social dynamics within the game.

Players can embrace their inner ghoul starting at level 50. This transformation removes the need to worry about basic survival elements like hunger and thirst but introduces a new gameplay mechanic: managing feral progression and radiation accumulation. Accumulating higher levels of radiation unlocks special perks, adding a strategic layer to how players navigate the wasteland. Furthermore, the update allows for the customization of C.A.M.P.s with new radioactive-themed aesthetics, enhancing the immersive experience. For those who prefer their human form, the option to revert back is always available, ensuring players can switch between styles as they see fit.

The "Glow of the Ghoul" update is poised to revolutionize player engagement in Fallout 76, offering fresh challenges and opportunities to explore the post-apocalyptic world in a whole new way.
