If you can’t login to Fallout 76, then you’re not alone. Betheda has taken the Fallout 76 servers down and this is for maintenance for March 26, as the studio ushers in Season 16: Duel With the Devil!
Fallout 76 Server Schedule for March 26:
Update: The official patch notes for FO76’s Season 16 are finally available!
Here’s the announcement from Bethesda:
ℹ️ On Tuesday, March 26 at 10am ET/9am CT, we are bringing @Fallout 76 offline on all platforms to apply an update.
For Server Status updates, keep an eye out on our Status Portal, our Twitter, or our Official Discord Server.— Bethesda Support (@BethesdaSupport) March 25, 2024
Unfortunately, same as before, there is no estimated time as to how long this server outage is, but we gather, it’ll take at least 2-3 hours (or even more) based on past maintenance outages.
As to what’s incoming with the new season, read on for the details courtesy of Bethesda, though the patch notes aren’t available just yet.
SEASONS UPGRADES
Fallout 76 is updating from a scoreboard to a Seasons Pass system – featuring pages and tickets, allowing you more flexibility in claiming rewards.
You’ll continue to earn S.C.O.R.E. and rank up by completing daily and weekly challenges (the same as before)! As you earn ranks, you will unlock more Season Pages. On each Season Page, you can see what rewards are available ahead of time, get a closer look at those rewards and earn the ones you really want by redeeming them in any order. Each time you rank up, you will get 25 tickets, and you can redeem those tickets for any reward on Season Pages that you have already unlocked.
Even after rank 100, you can still acquire and redeem tickets for a variety of player vanity, C.A.M.P. and consumable items. Make sure to use your tickets because they do expire at the end of the season.
GEAR UP WITH THIS SEASON’S REWARDS
Fear not! This season, the astoundingly awesome and unfailingly patriotic Rip Daring is duking it out with the Jersey Devil. No one but the burly hero–and Nurse Guinevere and Percival–could stand toe to toe with the fearsome cryptid stalking New Jersey.
Except you, Vault Dweller. You, too, can don the outfit of the famed cryptid hunter and take down devils with an all-new weapon, Cremator! Once unlocked, the Cremator will be craftable and moddable at Weapon Workbenches once you hit level 30.
This season, you can also unlock Adelaide, the amazing Assaultron actress who will adorn your C.A.M.P. and deign to sign autographs for all her adoring fans.
Again, the complete patch notes aren’t available yet, but once that’s available, we’ll provide a link to it within the article, so stay tuned! If anything changes or if the maintenance is extended, we’ll update the article with the info.
