Fallout 76 got an update not long ago that fixed a bunch of bugs without adding much new content, but it did help lay the groundwork for future Steel Dawn content. That update is the one that'll help usher in the Brotherhood of Steel when the faction comes in full to the Fallout 76 setting for the first time, and starting now, players can preview some of that new content. The Fallout 76 test servers have been updated with new Steel Dawn quests and rewards, and if you've got a PC and access to the servers, you can try everything out now.

The Steel Dawn update has been previewed to be a large one with lots of new items and quests for players to unravel, so with this being the first big preview of Steel Dawn content, don't expect to see everything laid out for you and the Brotherhood stomping around everywhere right away. Instead, some quests have been enabled that players can participate in if they're a high enough level, and a bunch of items have been added that players can access right away.

To participate in the Steel Dawn quests, you have to be at least level 20. Head to the Fort ATLAS location while following the "Welcome to a Neighborhood" quest instructions to begin.

As for the new items, Bethesda said it added a pre-made character to the test server accounts that contains all the items added in this test server update. That character is level 50 and has plenty of supplies and resources to get what they want so that you can go crazy testing things as soon as you load in. Everything below is included in the pre-made character provided to players.
