What would the Jersey Shore look like after a nuclear holocaust? Find out now in Fallout 76: Atlantic City – Boardwalk Paradise, an all-new Expedition that is now available for Bethesda’s multiplayer online RPG, free for all players.

Here’s a description of the new content from Bethesda Game Studios, which appears to comprise two missions:

Deemed a “low priority target” when the Great War broke out, Atlantic City is now a premier destination of the wasteland, offering thrilling entertainment, scenic coastal views and even running electricity! Players can now venture out to Atlantic City to complete two new Expedition missions that will get them properly acquainted with the local populace.

Encourage some unsavory business with The Family, Atlantic City’s resident mob, while they try stay off the radar of the Municipal Government keeping the lights on (both literally and figuratively.) Meanwhile, the guild running the city’s entertainment known as The Showmen have a daring gauntlet with glory and riches awaiting those brave (or possibly foolish) enough to enter!

You’ll want to pack more than a spare change of clothes for your trip to Atlantic City, however. Beyond the New Jersey Pine Barrens lie the mutated Overgrown – irradiated, plant-like beasts from deep within the woods encroaching on Atlantic City’s borders. Also keep an eye out for some ferocious lil’ devils spotted in the area – Appalachia isn’t the only place with cryptid spottings, y’know.

Those who are new to Fallout 76 can pick up a new version of the game called the Fallout 76: Atlantic City – Boardwalk Paradise Deluxe Edition, which includes not only Fallout 76, but also a new High Stakes Bundle that includes the Civic Duty Power Armor, a plushie, and other bonus digital content:

Bethesda also mentioned that players will want to head to the Atomic Shop sooner rather than later, as a free Vault 33 jumpsuit will be available to grab from the store until December 12:
