Bethesda has been anticipating a lot of errors in the Break It Early Test Application (B.E.T.A.) phase for Fallout 76, but the test period stumbled off the starting line a bit.

Beyond being a major annoyance, this beta phase is set for limited time periods and this kept players out of the game while having to redownload and limited the amount of data Bethesda could use from players jumping into the multiplayer survival game.

As seen in the tweet above, the updated Fallout 76 beta schedule across all platforms is as follows:

Gear up to return to this fresh, new wasteland tomorrow and stay tuned to Shacknews for additional Fallout 76 updates.
