[2020] Steel Dawn Arrives Early for the Holidays

This is an update to a previous post about the Xbox/Windows 10 update issues.

Earlier today, there was an error that caused players in our Xbox community to begin downloading the Steel Dawn Update ahead of schedule, but prevented them from actually playing. We immediately began investigating ways we could get our Xbox players back in-game as soon as possible. However, in our discussions, all of us at Bethesda Game Studios felt the best way to resolve this was to release the update for everyone.

Instead of reverting the update for Xbox and making everyone wait another week, we’ve decided to roll out the Steel Dawn Update on all platforms today, November 24.

Currently, we’re working to begin maintenance for all platforms at 4:00 p.m. ET, and Fallout 76 will be offline for around six hours. When maintenance is over, you’ll be able to get started with the Steel Dawn questline, your first C.A.M.P. Shelter, and everything else this update contains.

We’d like to apologize to our Xbox players for any confusion today’s issue caused, but we hope that everyone in the Fallout 76 community is as excited as we are to dive into Steel Dawn ahead of schedule.

Thank you very much. If you celebrate Thanksgiving, we hope all of you have a wonderful holiday. We’ll see you at Fort Atlas!
