Burning Springs is the latest expansion in Fallout 76, and this time the map has been expanded sideways (to the Northwest, to be specific). And even though the new map is just a jump, skip, and a hop over the river, it's an entirely different vibe.
"The way Jon Rush (creative director) likes to describe it is, our world is like a theme park," lead producer, Bill LaCoste, tells me. "So every area has a defined theme, and we didn't have anything that was very close to that desert kind of Wasteland. So this just made perfect sense for the region that we'd be expanding into, and the reasons why the region is that way. It really fit well with what we had."
