One question I didn't see on Bethesda's site, nor in any post here, is if it has to be a new account link or if one that has been there for a while will count to get 76 free on steam.
My bethesda and steam accounts have been linked for quite a while due to FO4. I just wanted to make sure that counts.
Thanks!

Hey Lady, I have a question. I can't see the steam account linked to my Bethesda account. I contacted support and was told they can't tell me what it is, they would have to unlink it, but apparently unlinking it would cause me to lose all of my progress on 76. Could you tell me why that is? It seems strange since Steam should at least currently have nothing to do with my 76 progress. I'd like to get this on steam but I'm certainly not willing to sacrifice all of my progress for it.
If you own Fallout 4 you can check the creation club to see what account is linked. I believe you can do so on Elder Scrolls Legends as well which is F2P if you don't own FO4.
Can you relay the fact that tons of people here on Reddit and elsewhere are not going to make the deadline because of your Support ticket load?
Are you guys going to extend this promotion.....?
As long as you have your ticket in before the deadline you will still receive it. Our support is working as hard as they can to get through all the tickets they're receiving.
Thanks for the reply. I can do that, but if I discover it's the wrong account I'm concerned that I won't be able to link the right one without losing my 76 progress. Is it true that that will happen if I decide to unlink the current steam account? It just doesn't make sense to me since 76 currently has no dependency on steam.
That is correct, our support page has a warning about this when you go to unlink your account.
I’m not sure if you’re the right person to ask this but..
In my case I have two Bethesda accounts. I’m trying to move the Steam link from one acc to the other. Am I still eligible in this case?
You can, but be aware that it may cause you to lose progress by unlinking your account from one to the other.
I have a ticket in about unlinking my steam account from a bethesda account to my new one, will i still be getting a copy of fallout 76 on steam, is there something i have ask support or something?
You will, you put the ticket in before the deadline. They are working as hard as they can to get through all these tickets.
