Fallout 76 Coming to Steam with Free Expansion

Bethesda announces that Fallout 76 will be coming to Steam on April 7th, and this will come along with a free expansion called Wastelanders for all owners of the game. This will bring a lot to the post-apocalyptic RPG, including a new main quest, human NPCs, new creatures and gear, and more. There will also be new bundles offered for purchase, and this post has details on those and the plans to relaunch the game, saying players will be able to transfer their game and items (but not items) from Bethesda.net to Steam. They also offer a Fallout 76: Wastelanders Official Trailer. Here's word:
FALLOUT 76 – WASTELANDERS LAUNCH DATE & DETAILS
The wait is almost over. Soon new faces will flow into the wilds of West Virginia and it will be up to you to welcome them with open arms (or loaded weapons). We are excited to share that Fallout 76 owners will be able to experience the Wastelanders expansion for free on April 7 on Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and PC through Bethesda.net. Fallout 76 will also be coming to Steam on April 7, and 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 7.

HOW TO PLAY WASTELANDERS
Current Fallout 76 owners will not need to purchase any additional content in order to play Wastelanders when it launches. This expansion is completely free for Fallout 76 owners. For those who want more, we’re also offering for purchase two Faction-themed content bundles, as well as a combination bundle, which will give players access to exclusive cosmetic and C.A.M.P. items.

Did they figure out it was selling poorly and hoping that more exposure would jumpstart the sales? Like maybe they shouldn't have shafted valve?

Not that I think it will make much difference because most people just aren't fond of it.

As per their announcement last March, FO76 was their first and last attempt at exclusivity for major releases. Took only 4 months since that came out for them to change their mind. Though I suppose it must have been making them at least some money, since they've taken their sweet time bringing it over. It was supposed to already be on Steam by now.
