Fallout 76 is getting a new game mode geared toward more competitive players seeking a challenge, Bethesda said in a blog post.

This game mode, Survival, will be accessible from the main menu. Upon launching Fallout 76, players will have the opportunity to choose between the existing experience, now known as Adventure, or the new Survival mode, which has “the same quests, events, and story that you’re used to in Adventure mode.” Existing characters can be brought into Survival, where they will share their inventory and status across both game modes.
