Fallout 4 is Getting a Free Update on Console, PC and SteamDeck

The Fallout TV show has gotten off to a great start, with fantastic reviews and community feedback in the last 24 hours, and rumour has it season 2 was commissioned before it even aired. Now Bethesda are saying you should get “return to the Commonwealth April 25!” as they unleash a wave of updates for their iconic game Fallout 4.

Fallout 4 Upgrades for Next-Gen (Well, Current-Gen) Consoles

Bethesda Game Studios is releasing a free Fallout 4 update for download on Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5. This free update includes native applications for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, Performance mode and Quality mode settings, as well as stability improvements and fixes. Experience up to 60 FPS and increased resolutions! Fallout 4 players on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One will also receive a free update with stability improvements, login and quest fixes.

To download the update on a next-generation console, you must own Fallout 4 for that device.

Fallout 4 PC Upgrades

We are also releasing a free Fallout 4 update for PC players! Experience Fallout 4 on your next-generation PC with widescreen and ultra-widescreen support, as well as fixes to Creation Kit and a variety of quest updates. That right, native ultrawide support, at long, long, long last!

Players with PC versions of Fallout 4 on Steam, Microsoft Store and GOG will receive stability, mods and bug fixes. For Japanese and Chinese language players on PC, Bethesda.net login issues have been resolved, fixing access to mods.

Alongside this exciting update, Fallout 4 will be available to purchase on the Epic Games Store.

Steam Deck

Fallout 4 will also be Steam Deck verified, meaning you’ll be able to enjoy it on the go, although I’m pretty sure some players have already been doing that anyway.
