Bethesda has announced that it has plans to kill the Bethesda Launcher later in 2022. Players are being given an early warning to prepare for the eventual cessation of support for the PC game launcher. Games purchased through the BL will be migrating to Steam with the process starting in early April. Games will still be able to be launched from the Bethesda Launcher throughout April with support officially ending in May.
You have plenty of time to plan and begin migrating your Bethesda.net library to your Steam account. The migration to Steam will include your game library and Wallet – meaning you will not lose anything from your Bethesda.net account. Many games will also have their saves migrated, with a few requiring some manual transfers. For games that require it, you will still use your Bethesda.net login to sign in to play. Your Bethesda.net account will not be lost and will still be accessible on our website and in-game, and we will continue supporting all Bethesda.net accounts with our future titles.
To assist players with any possible questions, the team has put together a handy dandy FAQ for more general questions but also a specific FAQ for those concerned about Fallout 76 in particular.
