The next beta schedule for Fallout 76 has been announced. This coming weekend, players can once again test the full game for a few hours.
After the beta started in the USA on October 23 and here on October 24 with the first phase, developer Bethesda is now announcing the next beta schedule.
This again only concerns the Xbox One; the beta will start on the other versions at a later date. The second phase will start this coming Saturday. However, it will be shorter than the last one.
Update from October 25, 1:30 PM: A third date has now been announced for Sunday, October 28.
Second and third beta periods better for European players
When exactly does the next beta phase take place? The beta will restart this coming Saturday, October 27. It will run from 11 PM to 1 AM. Thus, it will be shorter than the previous run time.
On Sunday, October 28, the beta will run from 5 PM to 7 PM. At least these are more convenient times for players living in Europe. The first beta started in the middle of the night.
How to participate in the beta: To receive a participation code, you need to preorder Fallout 76. You also need a Gold membership.

What about PC and PS4? They will also receive a beta, but it will not start until October 30. The participation requirements are the same.
The beta corresponds content-wise to the full version of Fallout 76, and players can keep their progress. According to Bethesda, the online RPG features over 150 hours of side content.
