Bethesda Reveals Fallout 76 B.E.T.A Dates

Although Fallout 76 is just around the corner, those waiting to get their hands on it don’t have to wait until November 14 to do. Today, Bethesda (finally) announced the date of the game’s upcoming B.E.T.A. 

Xbox One players will get first dibs starting October 23. After that, on October 30, PlayStation 4 and PC users will get their chance.

The only catch is that you’ll have to pre-order the game to get access to the B.E.T.A. You can do that on Bethesda’s website, Amazon, Gamestop, and the Microsoft Store. 

Once you pre-order, head over to Bethesda’s Fallout 76 FAQ page to redeem your the code on your pre-order receipt. 

Though players will have access to the B.E.T.A on the dates previously mentioned, the B.E.T.A.’s servers will not remain live indefinitely. The game will go down periodically during the test as developers attempt to troubleshoot any issues and attempt to stress test the servers prior to the official release date.

If you run into any hiccups during the test, you can check server statuses on the Bethesda.net Status Page. You can also get updates by following Bethesda on Twitter. 

Bethesda plans to release a series of videos detailing helpful tips prior to the B.E.T.A’s release date. 

And while you wait patiently for the B.E.T.A., check out why we think Fallout 76 won’t suck.
