Hello Xbox Insiders,
If you have pre-ordered Fallout 76 and are in North America, Bethesda Game Studios and the Xbox Insider Program invite you to participate in the first Fallout 76 Stress Test this Saturday, October 13th! This Stress Test is different than the Fallout 76 B.E.T.A. taking place later this month. Unlike the B.E.T.A., the Fallout 76 Stress Test will be under NDA (read: confidential) and your progress during the Stress Test will not be saved. However, you get to play the game early and help us stress test in preparation for the B.E.T.A., so keep reading to learn how to participate!
A note from Bethesda: This is a work-in-progress build so expect performance, stability and graphics issues. If the servers go down, that’s a good thing! Keep trying! We appreciate your patience and help with our stress test!
How to Participate
This stress test is limited to users who:
- Have pre-ordered Fallout 76
- Are in the United States, Canada, or Mexico
If you haven’t pre-ordered, and want to participate, pre-order here.
If you pre-ordered Fallout 76 digitally on Xbox One:
- Log into your Xbox One with the same account you used to pre-order
- Download the Xbox Insider Hub App from the Store
- Launch the Xbox Insider Hub and look for “Fallout 76 Stress Test” under the Insider Content tab.
- Click “Join,” accept the terms of use, and you’ll be brought to the Store to install the game.
- Be sure to install ASAP so you are ready to join the Stress Test on Saturday!
If you pre-ordered the physical version of Fallout 76 on Xbox One, log in to your Bethesda.net account to see if you received a token to redeem on your Xbox. Simply redeem the token provided through your Bethesda.net account and install.
The Fallout 76 stress test will begin on Saturday, October 13th, from 2 p.m. – 6 p.m. PST (5 p.m. – 9 p.m. EST). Be sure to follow @bethesdastudios and @fallout on Twitter to confirm what time the Stress Test will start, in case the start time changes. The schedule will also be displayed in-game on the Start screen.
Give us your feedback!
