Fallout 4 is getting a free current-gen update for consoles and PC

Fallout 4 will receive a shiny new current-generation coat of paint for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC in 2023. Best of all, it won’t cost existing owners a dime!

As part of the franchise’s 25th anniversary celebration, Bethesda announced that Fallout 4 is getting a free update next year that’ll take full advantage of current hardware. Some new features include 4K resolutions, high framerate caps, plenty of bug fixes, and creation club content — pretty much all of the technical bells and whistles we’ve come to expect from touch-ups like this. It’s essentially the same style of port that Skyrim recently had.

There’s no firm release date for this patch yet, only that it’s coming in 2023. Bethesda will reveal launch information at a later date.

It’s been several years since a brand-new Fallout came out, and the fifth installment isn’t releasing until after Elder Scrolls 6 drops. It’ll be a long wait since Starfield also needs to launch before Fallout 5. Get a deck of cards ready and all that.

However, a Fallout TV show is in the works for fans craving more. Set photos recently leaked and were promptly taken down – a shame since it looks fantastic. Trust me!
