50 free Fallout 76 trivia questions with answers — trivia quiz, new questions added Oct 2026.
Fallout 76 sent the series online and back in time, opening its shelter door earlier than any other game in the timeline. Players step out into the hills of Appalachia to find the people gone, a plague in the air and monsters from local folklore in the woods. This quiz covers the whole game: the Scorched and the creatures behind them, the Enclave storyline and the entrance questionnaire MODUS sets in its bunker, the Brotherhood quest Mother of Invention and its pop quiz, factions, landmarks, expansions, and the story of how the game was made and received. It is written for anyone who has roamed Appalachia, whether you were there on launch day or arrived years later. Questions begin with the things most players remember and move on to deeper lore, and every answer comes with a short explanation.
