Fallout 76: Halloween 2021 update revealed, dates and details
Fallout 76
Bethesda has announced details on the upcoming Fallout 76 update dedicated to Halloween 2021. Let's see all the information shared about the contents and the start and end dates of the events.First of all, Bethesda said that the Fallout 2021 Halloween 2021 update will be available starting October 19, 2021. The end of the events is scheduled for November 2, 2021. During this time you will be able to find "fiery scary" themed clothes that will come into play as legendary: taking them down will earn you a legendary item and a piece of mystery candy. You will also get Mystery Treats that will contain consumables, ammo, and even the chance to have Halloween-themed loot.
Mystery Candies will grant one of five random special benefits, but you can also keep them for visitors that will pass by you in the weeks of the Fallout 76 Halloween 2021 event. Everyone will be able to request a free bowl of scary treats in the Atomic Shop, place it in their CAMP and fill it with mystery candies obtained from the frightful fiery or purchased from railway station traders. Until November 2, all villagers will receive daily challenges for "trick or treating" in the C.A.M.P. of other players, as well as daily and weekly challenges for distributing treats from their bowls of scary treats.
Each of these completed daily challenges will grant you one of the many rewards available, such as a consumable item, a pack of Talent cards, a lunch box, a repair kit or some S.C.O.R.E. In addition, weekly challenges to give candy to "trick or treat" fans can reward you with S.C.O.R.E., rare crafting materials or even Halloween costumes. If you manage to complete both weekly challenges, you will also receive the new popcorn machine to build in your Appalachian mansion. Each villager will be able to have a piece of candy every hour: they will not be able to take all of your stash in one fell swoop. Finally, remember that you will need to be wearing a costume to successfully "trick or treat" when visiting the C.A.M.P. of other players.

Fallout 76 Halloween Update Details, Release Date Revealed
Bethesda released new details pertaining to Fallout 76's next update this week to give players an idea of when the next patch will be released and what'll be included. It's scheduled to go live on October 19th, the developers said, and with it will come this year's Halloween festivities just as we've seen in plenty of other games already. Unique Scorched variants with tons of loot, free Atomic Shop items and associated challenges, more to come were just a few of the highlights of the update preview.
These events always have something for players to shoot at regardless of what else is included, and this time, that means taking aim at some Spooky Scorched creatures. These are tougher than the normal Scorched you'll encounter, but they've got rewards to match.
'From October 19 – November 2, you'll occasionally run into these 'Spooky Scorched' during your adventures in Appalachia,' Bethesda said. 'Each one will spawn as legendary, and taking them down will net you with a legendary item and a piece of Mystery Candy. You'll also receive a Spooky Treat Bag, which you can open to receive rewards like consumables, ammo, and even a chance at some Halloween themed loot!'
The Mystery Candy secured from fighting the Spooky Scorched can be used to grant five random buffs, but Bethesda advised hanging onto a few pieces so that you can offer them to people who come visit your C.A.M.P. over the course of the next few weeks. That's because the game's also having a Trick or Treat event where players get a free candy bowl from the Atomic Shop which can hold Mystery Candy for others to pick up when they're tasked with visiting players' settlements.
'Until November 2, all Dwellers will receive Daily Challenges to trick or treat at others' C.A.M.P.s, as well as Daily and Weekly Challenges to hand out treats from their Spooky Candy Bowls,' Bethesda said.Each of these Daily Challenges that you complete will grant you one of several possible rewards, like a consumable item, Perk Card Pack, Lunchbox, Repair Kit, or some S.C.O.R.E. Additionally, Weekly Challenges to give candy to trick-or-treaters can award you S.C.O.R.E., rare crafting materials, or even Halloween costumes. If you manage to complete both Weekly Challenges, you'll also receive the new Popcorn Machine that you can build in your Appalachian abode.'
Fortnite's Halloween festivities are scheduled to begin on October 19th and will run from then until November 2nd.
