\nAfter a couple of rounds of exclusive beta access for Fallout 76 players on Xbox One, Bethesda has now revealed new phases for PC, and PS4 players.
Only fans who pre-order the game will able to take part in the beta test and unlike previous Bethesda betas, fans will be allowed to share images and videos of their experiences.
It goes without saying that you\u2019ll need an Xbox Live Gold or PlayStation Plus membership to be able to take part in the beta for Fallout 76.
Players will get to experience the full game with the beta. The plan is to allow players to carry their progress over when the game goes fully live and Bethesda has said more information on this will be released soon.
The Fallout 76 beta will begin on Xbox One on Tuesday, October 23, and on PlayStation 4 and PC on October 30. You can only access the beta if you have pre-ordered Fallout 76, so don\u2019t fall for any sites that say you can get a code without a pre-order.
The first phase of testing on Xbox One, PC, and PS4 begin on October 30 and will run at the following times:
October 30: 11 pm \u2013 3 am GMT 7 pm \u2013 11 pm ET 4 pm \u2013 8 pm PT
November 1: 6 pm \u2013 11 pm GMT 2 pm \u2013 7 pm ET 11 am \u2013 4 pm PT
November 3 9 pm \u2013 1 am GMT 5 pm \u2013 9 pm ET 2 pm \u2013 6 pm PT
November 4 6pm \u2013 1 am GMT\t 2 pm \u2013 9 pm ET 11 am \u2013 6 pm PT
November 6 pm \u2013 8pm GMT 1 pm \u2013 3 pm ET 10 am \u2013 12 pm PT
November 8 7 pm \u2013 1 am GMT 2 pm \u2013 8 pm ET 11 am \u2013 5 pm PT
Bethesda plans to rotate through the major time zones so that players around the world can test the game at standard peak times.
You can check the official Fallout and Bethesda Studios Twitter pages, as well as Bethesda\u2019s server status page and official forum for the latest updates.
Accessing the Fallout 76 beta isn\u2019t quite as straightforward as you\u2019d think. Regardless of which platform you are playing the Fallout 76 beta on, you will need to sign up for a Bethesda.net account .
Bethesda will have PC players using their new Bethesda Launcher portal to play Fallout 76, so here\u2019s how to access it on PC and consoles: For PC players who both ordered from and created an account for Bethesda.net
You can access the beta from the Bethesda Launcher once it\u2019s live. If you pre-ordered Fallout 76 from a store such as Amazon or Game, you will have received a code on or with your physical or digital receipt. PC players can redeem this code on the Bethesda Launcher to gain access to the beta once it\u2019s available. Console players
Console players who pre-ordered Fallout 76 digitally via the Xbox Store or PlayStation Store will automatically be able to access the beta once it\u2019s live on their respective platforms. You can search for Fallout 76 beta once it\u2019s available on your console\u2019s store to download it and join the beta.
Again, if you pre-ordered Fallout 76 from a store, you will have received a code with your receipt, however, this is not your actual beta code. Instead, you must create a free Bethesda.net account, redeem the code that came with your receipt and you will be given a code to redeem on your respective console to access the beta.
The servers for the Fallout 76 beta will not be active 24\/7. Instead, they\u2019ll usually be online during targeted timeframes to stress test the busiest periods of the day.
Fallout 76 will usually be online between four and eight hours a day with as many people as possible, so they can highlight quickly what needs to be fixed. Bethesda has said that it will make an announcement when it wants players to converge online to make the most of the short play periods.
If you\u2019ve ever played a Bethesda game, then you\u2019ll know what to expect: a tonne of hilarious, mind-boggling bugs.
As always, Bethesda is aware of some bugs and has deliberately kept them in Fallout 76, whether that\u2019s for comic relief or because it hasn\u2019t found a way to fix the bug yet, we\u2019re not sure.
Bethesda has requested constant feedback from players trying out the beta so that it can remedy any game-breaking issues quickly prior to launch.
You\u2019ll be able to submit feedback via Twitter, Facebook and Bethesda\u2019s official forum for Fallout 76.
You\u2019ll need about 45 GB of space available to download and play Fallout 76, so it\u2019s time to start thinking about which game is for the chop to make way for Fallout 76.
PC players won\u2019t need to download a separate version of the game at launch, but console players will need to download the official launch version on November 14, regardless of whether you actually download and play the beta or not.
As we said earlier, from October 23 on Xbox One and October 30 on PS4 and PC, fans can stream, share images and videos and create content. Take all the screenshots you want and share them with the world!
If you decided to pre-order the Tricentennial Edition of Fallout 76, you\u2019ll need to wait until launch to access the extras that come with it. We\u2019re sure the wait will be worth it.
The in-game currency for Fallout 76 is Atoms, which you\u2019ll earn by completing various challenges and achievements. You can use Atoms to buy cosmetic customisation options for your character and this option is only open by playing the game during the beta stage. When Fallout 76 officially launches on November 14, however, you can use your real-life money to buy Atoms.
Factions will be a crucial part of Fallout 76, with the return of the Enclave, Brotherhood of Steel and Raiders, as well as two new additions: the Responders and the Free States. You can read more about them in our faction guide here.
Whilst your gameplay progress will be carried over to the official launch, you won\u2019t be able to earn any trophies or Achievements during the beta.
