Summary

  • Bethesda released Fallout 76 update 1.7.25.39 with downloads ranging from 9.8 GB on Steam to 22.6 GB on Xbox, bundling broad bug fixes with a status update on native current-gen console versions.
  • Native PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series development is still underway, with Bethesda planning a console testing period for existing owners that will also bring console players into the Public Test Server.
  • The patch fixes event and gameplay issues including Head Hunts failures, V.A.T.S. melee problems, enemy detection after fast travel and audio-device crash bugs, while rebalancing Infestations and boss fights.
  • Other changes raise ammo drops, cut legendary drops from non-boss enemies, reduce the Heart of the Swamp Mirelurk Queen's health and add server-wide Infestation alerts, with more feedback-driven changes slated for fall.
  • Bethesda also flagged one known issue: French voice-over for the Burning Springs update is unavailable for now, with subtitles recommended until support returns.
