If there’s one thing that everyFalloutgame has taught us, it’s that humans never learn their lesson. As if Earth needed to endure any more nuclear explosions,Fallout 76allows players to launch nukes of their own and even encourages them to do so.

While obtaining pre-war nuclear launch codes was a privilege only a few in the world had, the post-apocalyptic wasteland hands out codes as if they were phone numbers. If you’re looking to leave a radioactive scar upon Earth yourself, you’re gonna need to know whatNuke Codesare currently active.

What are Nukes Codes used for inFallout 76?

InFallout 76, Nuke Codes are weekly codes for launching nukes across the Appalachian Wasteland. When the codes reset every Sunday night, any codes held within player inventories will be deleted. Each code consists of eight digits corresponding to one of the three nuclear launch sites within the game: Alpha, Bravo, and Charlie. Since each code can be used by any player while they are active, the community comes together to decipher the codes each week so that individuals don’t have to.Besidesnuking other players’ camps for fun, nuclear launches play a vital role in the endgame ofFallout 76. After an area is nuked, some of the highest-level enemies, loot, and mutated flowers spawn within the newly created blast zone. Some bosses such as the Scorchbeast Queen only spawn when particular areas are nuked.

Where are the nuclear launch sites inFallout 76?

There are three nuclear launch sites in Fallout 76, each located within the Savage Divide region. There aren’t many differences between them, but if a player has recently used a site to launch a nuke, the interior will be on lockdown (effectively a cooldown state).

Site Alpha is located North of West Tek Research Center.

Launch Site Bravo

Site Bravo is found directly South of the Palace of the Winding Path, or Northeast of the Grafton Dam.
