Fallout 76's World Pets Update Is Giving Fallout 5 a Companion Problem Before It Even Arrives

It may still be a few months before the Fallout 76 World Pets update officially goes live, but I'm already eager to see exactly how these teased companion tweaks affect the overall experience. Fallout 76 has been seeing big improvements for nearly eight years now, and World Pets could prove to be a game-changer not just for pets, but also for other companion types, too. Bethesda's multiplayer spin-off has been carrying the game side of the Fallout franchise for a long time now, and as the length between mainline entries continues to grow larger, Fallout 76 is quickly turning into a blueprint for what to expect from Fallout 5.
