While we were kind of anticipating it for the summer, Bethesda confirmed that the Fallout 76 B.E.T.A. won’t be available until October, one month ahead of the launch of the full game for PC, PS4 and Xbox One.

The information was revealed on the official Bethesda forums by community administrator Jurassica, who said you’ll be able to access the build by preordering the title at selected retailer partners.

“Popping in to say that it’s been very fun seeing everyone’s discussion on Fallout 76 and what your hopes and thoughts are about the game. I and members of the studio regularly lurk, and it’s been great to read through your questions and feedback. With that in mind, we know you’re anxious to learn more about the game and more specifically, about the B.E.T.A.,” said Bethesda.

“Starting in October we’ll be selecting people who have pre-ordered the game from a participating retailer to enter our B.E.T.A. We’ll start small and grow over time as we prepare for launch. Be sure you’ve read our F.A.Q., for details on how to redeem your B.E.T.A. code and other important details.”

More information about the game and the beta itself, which will be starting on Xbox One first and then will reach PS4 and PC too, will be revealed during a dedicated panel at QuakeCon, on August 11 at 11am CT, also airing Mixer and Twitch.
