What's the Difference Between Fallout 76 and Fallout 76 Wastelanders?
Fallout 76 Wastelanders isn't a separate game, but a massive free update to Fallout 76. It brought NPCs (non-player characters), new quests, and a revamped story to the game. This update majorly overhauled the game, making the wasteland feel more alive and immersive. The original Fallout 76 was more of an empty canvas, focusing on survival and exploration with other players. Wastelanders added much-needed depth and narrative, something fans felt was missing at launch.

The only diff? Wastelanders makes Fallout 76 what it should've been from the start: a true Fallout experience. Quests, factions, the works. Pure upgrade, no downsides.
Wastelanders = Fallout 76 but with actual people to talk to (not players, but NPCs) and more stuff to do. It's like the game finally graduated from being a desolate sandbox to an RPG.
