Fallout 76 Beta Coming Soon

Bethesda is excited to announce that their B.E.T.A. (Break-It Early Test Application) will arrive first on Xbox One on Tuesday, October 23, and one week later for PlayStation 4 and PC players on Tuesday, October 30.

.

During the B.E.T.A. one of their primary goals is to stress test and break the game. As such, the servers will not be running 24/7; instead, they’ll be online during targeted timeframes so they can get as many people as possible playing at the same time. Why? Because that’s the best way to put all their systems to the test and see how they respond.

On any given day the game might be up for anywhere between four to eight hours. Focusing as many players as they can into these windows is their prime objective. Then they will fix what they need to fix and do it again and again from the start of B.E.T.A. until a few days before launch. They will give players as much heads up as possible because they need you to log in during these times and play the game. They will also keep players posted through their official @Fallout and @bethesdastudios on Twitter as well as the Bethesda.net forums and their Bethesda.net Status Page to learn when servers will be online.

While the adventures you and your friends will experience will all be unique, you’ll start the same as everyone else: within the safe confines of Vault 76 on Reclamation Day. For the very first time, they are excited to share how your journey will begin…

And they would like for you to share your own journeys. From the very start of the B.E.T.A., beginning on October 23, you will be free to stream and talk about all your experiences with Fallout 76 with the rest of the world.

According to Bethesda, this is an exciting new journey for Fallout – and for themself! During the B.E.T.A., players will likely see a glorious array of issues; many they know about, and many they don’t. They need your help in getting the game ready for launch and beyond. They think you will love playing the game as much as they do – and your continued feedback is critical to craft the long-term experience over the years to come. For additional details on the B.E.T.A., please take a look at their updated B.E.T.A. FAQ.

As you wait for B.E.T.A. to begin, they will be showcasing much more of the game in the next few weeks, including tips for multiplayer, wasteland survival, character builds & customization and more! Plus gameplay. Lots and lots of gameplay. Keep an eye on the Fallout website and social channels for news and updates about Fallout 76.

In preparation for B.E.T.A., they have already begun hosting smaller, timed stress tests. These tests include randomly selected players who are under NDA playing in top secret vaults. Their friends at Vault-Tec deemed these tests necessary for readying the servers for players around the world – both for B.E.T.A. and launch.
