Fallout 76: Where To Find All Cryptids

Fallout 76 is overrun with cryptids. Here’s how to find every one of them in the game.

Fallout 76 is Bethesda’s take on a Fallout online game for fans of the series. Since the release of Fallout’s TV show on Amazon, players have been flocking to the game to see what the franchise’s world has to offer.

One massive part of Appalachian Culture (and, in turn, Fallout 76) is cryptids. As of writing this, there are 13 cryptids that players are able to find and hunt down. Some of these have static locations, some are random encounters, and some only spawn during events. Here’s a breakdown of each cryptid in the game.

All Cryptids & Their Locations

Here is a breakdown of each cryptid, its variants, known locations, and any known associated quests or events. It is important to note that while the known locations are listed, there isn’t always a chance of the cryptid being there (some are static, and some aren’t). Players may need to check all the locations before finding the beast, or they may find them at the first location.
