Is Fallout 76 down for maintenance? That's the big question on all fan's lips right now. The servers certainly don't seem to be working, so what is the Fallout 76 Server Status? Are the Bethesda servers down?

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. So, is the game down for maintenance? And if so, why? We've got the answers below.

Fallout 76 Maintenance - Is Fallout 76 Down?

The short answer is: yes, the Fallout 76 servers are down for maintenance. Bethesda actually announced the maintenance today on the official @Fallout twitter feed, but you may have missed it.

"We're planning to bring Fallout 76 offline for PC only around 12:00 p.m. EST to release a hotfix for our servers. During this time, PC players will not be able to access the game until maintenance has concluded. We'll be sure to let you know in this thread once the game is back online. "

Bethesda normally shut's down the servers for periods of time to launch the latest patches, so most downtime seen in the game is related to that, but we'll let you know if there's anything different happening.

As for now, sit tight and be ready to return to the West Virginia wasteland.
