Backpacks are coming to Fallout 76
When the new update, Ever Upwards, arrives on May 7th players will have the opportunity to equip backpacks that will increase their carry capacity. The backpacks come in a number of different forms and players will be able to mod them. The devs gave a couple of examples of mods players will be able to install on their backpacks:
- increased carry capacity (it is a backpack, after all)
- armor plating for more damage resistance
- a refrigeration unit, which will give any food within some added shelf-life
Some of these mods will reduce the overall carry weight bonus offered by backpacks.
The backpacks will not be visible while wearing power armor but players will still receive the bonuses from them.
