How to get Fallout 76 free with Prime Gaming explained
11.04.2024 - 17:27 / radiotimes.com / Walton Goggins / Ella Purnell
Fallout 76 has had a tricky few years, but it has seen a bit of a fan resurgence in recent times — with Bethesda now making the game free for any Prime Gaming users.
The promotion is part of the Fallout TV show on Prime Video, starring Ella Purnell and Walton Goggins.
Similar to the games, it follows a vault inhabitant who has to make their way across a post-apocalyptic US city after the detonation of a nuclear bomb.
Originally launched in 2018, Fallout 76 is an online action RPG that has players banded together to take on the wasteland's greatest threats.
It takes heavy inspiration from Fallout 4, the predominately single-player experience that was released three years earlier.
So, if you're looking for your Fallout fill on the heels of the new Amazon show, here's how to get your hands on the game before the free promotion expires.
To redeem Fallout 76, you must be an Amazon Prime customer, with subscriptions starting from £8.99/$14.99 a month or £95/$139 per year.
Once purchased and logged into your Amazon account, head to the Prime Gaming webpage and locate Fallout 76.
From here, click the claim button to add it to your library. You will then be able to jump into the game on PC or Xbox.

Fallout fans spent years debating who dropped the bombs — then the show made a call
Fallout, the new TV drama based on the post-apocalyptic game series, premiered earlier this week on Prime Video. And instead of directly adapting any of the games (like HBO’s The Last of Us) or creating a separate continuity inspired by the series (à la Paramount Plus’ Halo), Fallout takes a wholly different approach: telling an original story set explicitly within the continuity of the games.
