If the Fallout series has taught us anything, it’s that humanity never learns. As if the planet hasn’t suffered enough nuclear devastation, Fallout 76 hands players the keys to launch their own nukes—and even encourages it. Whether it’s for wreaking havoc or chasing endgame rewards, nukes play a pivotal role in the Appalachian Wasteland.
To get started, you’ll need the latest Nuke Codes. Let’s dive into this week’s codes, their uses, and how to launch a missile of your own.
Fallout 76 Nuke Codes
- Alpha: 044 80 388
- Bravo: 610 83 483
- Charlie: 649 63 683
Reset Schedule: Nuke Codes reset every Sunday at 5 PM PT / 8 PM ET / Monday at 12 AM UTC. Codes in your inventory will disappear after the reset, so plan accordingly!
What Are Nuke Codes Used For?
In Fallout 76, Nuke Codes are essential for launching nuclear missiles from one of three launch sites: Alpha, Bravo, or Charlie. These weekly codes are shared across the community to save everyone the trouble of deciphering them individually.
While dropping nukes on another player’s camp might sound fun, they’re far more useful for unlocking endgame content:
- Blast Zones: Nuked areas spawn high-level enemies, rare loot, and mutated flora.
- Scorchbeast Queen: Certain locations trigger this boss fight, which is crucial for obtaining some of the best rewards in the game.
How to Launch Nukes in Fallout 76
Launching a nuke requires some preparation. Here’s a step-by-step guide:
- Complete the Main Quest.
- Join the Enclave faction.
- Progress through the questline until you unlock the mission I Am Become Death, which serves as a tutorial for the launch process.
- Alternatively, team up with someone who has already completed the quest. If they launch a nuke, it will auto-complete for you.
- Obtain a Nuclear Keycard.
- Use the tracking terminal in the Whitespring Congressional Bunker to locate a cargobot convoy carrying a Keycard.
- Access a Nuclear Launch Site.
- Head to Alpha, Bravo, or Charlie (locations detailed below).
- Fight through level 50+ enemies guarding the site.
- Enter the Nuke Code.
- Use the weekly Nuke Code corresponding to the site you’re at (e.g., Alpha Code for Launch Site Alpha).
- Choose a Target and Launch.
Where to Find Fallout 76 Launch Sites
All three launch sites are located in the Savage Divide region. While they function similarly, a site used recently will be in lockdown until it resets.
Launch Site Locations
- Alpha: North of West Tek Research Center.
- Bravo: South of Palace of the Winding Path or northeast of Grafton Dam.
- Charlie: Southwest of Foundation, inside a warehouse facility.
Armed with this knowledge, you’re ready to leave your mark on Appalachia—radioactive or otherwise. Whether you’re farming loot, hunting bosses, or just spreading chaos, nukes are your key to endgame glory in Fallout 76.
