https://www.pcgamer.com/fallout-76-beta-now-available-for-pre-loading-on-pc/ > If you pre-ordered Fallout 76 on PC, you still can't play it yet—the Fallout 76 beta doesn't begin for PC until October 30. However, you can now pre-load it in advance of next week's beta. > Frustrating in a way, isn't it? All that Fallout 76 data, downloaded and swirling around your computer's innards (that's how computers work, right, there's a lot of swirling?) but you can't launch it. Not yet.
