Fallout 76 is due to release very soon, on the 14th of November. Pre-loading for the game is already available, and given the enormous day one patch coming on the 14th, players would be wise to take advantage of that. The day one patch, which includes the 30 GB patch released during the BETA, is actually larger than the game itself. Although this means that there is no way to completely avoid a lengthy download, fans can at least get the main game pre-loaded ahead of time. Additionally, fans who have the Fallout 76 BETA may not need to re-download the entire 30 GB patch. Ahead of the Fallout 76 launch, Bethesda has also now released a worldwide map detailing the game’s precise release time in different regions.
#Fallout76 preload is available now for Xbox One, PlayStation 4, and PC. Check out our map to see when #ReclamationDay begins in YOUR region. https://t.co/bF3flVJXs0 pic.twitter.com/4EX4amUkoz
