Is Fallout 76 down for maintenance? If the servers don’t seem to be working, you will be looking to find the most recent Fallout 76 Server Status. Let’s see if there’s any scheduled maintenance planned by Bethesda.
You may have received a message saying the “Fallout 76 Servers Aren’t Responding” or “Fallout 76 Disconnected From Server” if you’ve been trying to play the game today. Bethesda will take the servers down at planned intervals to schedule maintenance and deploy patches safely, and the developer may add more servers for the online components if there’s an influx of players during events or over weekends to meet demand. Multiplayer matches won’t be available during these periods.
UPDATED: We updated this page on the 21st October with reports of a pending maintenance schedule due to take place on the 22nd October to deploy an update on all platforms.
