Persistently trying, Bethesda Softworks and Bethesda Game Studios are still trying to spread the controversial game known as Fallout 76 to different clients. This means the game known for all its woes will be on both the Bethesda.net launcher and Steam when the Wastelander update drops on April 14th, 2020.

Firstly, if you own Fallout 76 on PS4 or Xbox One, you will have access to the Wastelanders update. However, the “account linking” process from home consoles to Steam isn’t possible since it is only reserved for PC goers that have a Bethesda.net account.

I should note that current or existing Fallout 76 owners shouldn’t have to purchase any additional content to play the Wastelanders update when it launches. This expansion is said to be free for all Fallout 76 owners and will feature crossplay between Steam and Bethesda.net users.

In addition to the above, if you already have Fallout 76 on Bethesda.net, you won’t be able to transfer your Atoms or Fallout 1st membership between Bethesda’s client and Steam.

Moreover, folks that have a Bethesda.net account will need to download the game via Steam if they want to link accounts and play on either client.

Nevertheless, if the error message “Account linking failed. Please retry or contact Customer Support for assistance” appears when linking a Bethesda.net account to an external account that already has a Bethesda.net account associated with it, then it means you must check what your Bethesda.net account is linked to by visiting the “Linked Accounts” page on your account on Bethesda.net.

If you wish to change the Bethesda.net account associated with an external service (such as Twitch or Facebook), you will need to go to the “Linked Accounts” section of the correct Bethesda.net account and use the “Unlink” option.

If none of the above works, then it’s likely on Bethesda’s end, as explained on bethesda.net.

Anyway, the trailer showing the forthcoming update in action for the broken game sits below:

“Wastelanders will be available to anyone who purchases the standard or deluxe editions of the game. In addition to introducing fully voiced NPCs to the world of Fallout 76, Wastelanders brings a brand-new main questline, new locations, new enemies, new weapons, a new reputation system and much more. Get ready for Wastelanders with a new trailer and learn more about how you’ll be able to play it on April 14.”

In the meantime, if you want to play the glitchy and anti-consumer game that is Fallout 76, it’s out now across PC via Bethesda’s client, PS4, and Xbox One.
