Per Fan Request, Fallout 76 Has Implemented Wheelchairs
Bethesda has added a wheelchair as a usable furniture item to Fallout 76, per a fan’s request. The fan who goes by Kelly (@Kytahl on Twitter) is disabled and sent the request via Reddit a month ago. Kelly said, “I’m disabled irl and I would really REALLY love a wheelchair I can place in my C.A.M.P.” Bethesda saw this request, and a month later, wheelchairs are now available in the game. That’s the sort of feel-good story we need right now.
one month ago I posted this. Thank you so much, and excuse my tears. @Fallout @bethesda @bethesda_nl #Fallout #Fallout76 pic.twitter.com/VHmy0LRcKO
