Pet Radhogs are coming to Fallout 76 – and they were inspired by a real life pig

• A new enemy, the Radhog, is coming to Fallout 76
• Players will also be able to get a friendly one for their camps
• This was partially inspired by the creative director's own childhood pet

The upcoming Fallout 76: Burning Springs update will add a new Radhog camp pet with surprising real-world inspirations.

These large mutant pigs will be present in the game's new Ohio region as enemies, but players will also be able to get their hands on one to place in their settlements as a pet.

In an interview at a preview event last month, creative director Jon Rush revealed that the decision to add a friendly Radhog was partly inspired by his real-life childhood pet.
