Bethesda heeft de Fallout 76 beta met twee extra speelsessies aangevuld waarvan de eerste nu achter de rug is. De volgende sessie zal morgenavond plaatsvinden en nadien is het wachten tot de release van de game.

Als je de game gisteren hebt opgestart om aan de beta sessie mee te doen, dan zul je gezien hebben dat er een forse update gedownload moest worden. Deze update is versie 1.0.0.6 en inmiddels hebben we ook alle details daarvan voor je.

Mocht je deze update nog niet binnen hebben gehaald, doe dit dan op tijd zodat je morgenavond kan spelen. De update is met 30GB nogal aan de grote kant. Hieronder de patch notes.
