Bethesda has rolled out the notable Ghoul Within update for Fallout 76, enhancing the game with playable Ghoul characters and various new features. The update also signifies the commencement of Season 20: Glow of the Ghoul, providing players with themed abilities and content.

One of Fallout 76’s most sought-after features allows players to morph into a Ghoul, much to the excitement of fans. Players were given a glimpse of this ability during the Fallout 76 Public Test Server in December 2024, which let them playtest and provide feedback on the feature. However, the response was mixed as players will incur a fee of 1,000 Atoms (around $10) to change back into a human if they choose.

The Ghoul Within update enables players to embrace Ghoul life and explore its unique aspects.

In addition to playing as a Ghoul, the update introduces new seasonal rewards, such as mini collectibles and event participation bonuses, which will be available during Season 20, concluding in June.
