Ahead of its release, Bethesda's Fallout 4 video game has released various details but sadly, most of them come from leaked footages. The game will have an open world, and the story is set in post-apocalyptic Boston, Massachusetts. Fallout 4 is scheduled to hit PC, PS4 and Xbox One on 10 November, 2015.
Bethesda has released a new video trailer that shows some new gameplay that gives clarity to the game after some fans leaked it out early.
This two-minute video delves into the world created in the game, showing various locations in the game that have been affected by the Fallout. We come to know about the fear Synths have created among the existing humankind. The characters are seen speaking about the stopping Institute, "a malignant growth that needs to be cut before it infects the surface."

Guide to build a character
In Fallout 4, building a character is dependent upon a person playing the game as each person will have his own approach.
Players can build a perfect character using SPECIAL stats. Building a perfect character will enable players to cruise through any hard and challenging situation in the game, thanks to Gamepur that has provided the guide.
It must be noted that that 'Vault 111' is used to change player stats. The Perks are affected by the skills.
Players searching for the Mysterious Stranger perk will need Luck stats of 4. Below are the stats that a player will need to build:
- Strength - 3
- Perception - 4
- Endurance - 3
- Charisma - 6
- Intelligence - 6
- Agility - 2
- Luck – 4
Players must note that it is essential for a character to have a little bit of all the SPECIAL stats. The game mechanics and the elements of the game will be affected only when it comes to what SPECIAL stats is needed and how much.
Players will have the chance to earn extra SPECIAL points and unlock extra specific perks when they use these character stats in the game, the report noted.
Players must focus on bettering the Charisma and Intelligence stats, as they help in hacking restricted areas and opening new dialogue options.
To better a character's Lockpicking skills, Perception stats must be increased.
Once the character is ready to head into the game, it completely relies on the player and his/her style. The usage of companions must be according to the SPECIAL stats of the character.
