Fans of Bethesda's Fallout 76 should be made aware that the game's servers are about to go down for an unspecified amount of time.

In a post to Bethesda's Fallout 76 forum, Community Manager Valseek wrote that the game's servers will be going down at 10 AM ET (2 PM UTC) on Tuesday, September 29. This is so that the dev team can perform routine maintenance and apply hotfixes.

The Creation Engine, which is used in both Fallout 76 and Skyrim, has been in use for the better part of a decade. While there are those arguing it's time for Bethesda to step away from the engine, it is still being maintained and updated. This scheduled downtime has all the indications of routine maintenance, and if all goes smoothly players will be able to get back into the game soon.

Fallout 76 A Colossal Problem is up and running

There are indications that the creatures affected by the One Wasteland patch are going to receive some tweaking for better balance. This update made it so that creatures in Fallout 76 would have dynamic stats that adjust to the creature's various stats to better match the experience levels of players it is fighting. This means a low-level player can run around with one or more high-level players while being reasonably sure they will not be hugely outmatched.

While players will be unable to explore Camp Venture or visit any player-built memorials until after the dev team has finished maintenance, the other Fallout games are still available to play in the meantime.

Bethesda Support is encouraging players to report any bugs they may encounter in Fallout 76 both before and after the fix as soon as possible. Further developments, including the expected restoration time, will be posted to the forum post linked below.

Fallout 76 is available now for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
