Been watching on Prime Video? It turns out there’s a bunch of Fallout video games you can play right now if you like that show — and the latest one just got a juicy re-release of sorts.
As was announced in a earlier this month, 2015’s Fallout 4 just got a shiny new coat of paint. Officially set to launch on April 25 (which you may have noticed is today), Fallout 4 officially has PS5 and Xbox Series ports that promise a plethora of improvements to the nine-year-old game. Here’s what that entails.
What’s included in the Fallout 4 next-gen update?
First off, I should mention that the update to Fallout 4 is free if you already own the game on PS5 or Xbox Series consoles. Xbox subscribers, in particular, shouldn’t have a problem here, as the game is available on Xbox Game Pass for free.
Once you download the update, you’ll find that the game now has toggles for “Performance” or “Quality” modes in the settings menu. Bethesda’s blog post didn’t give exact technical specifications for these modes, but mentioned that the performance mode targets 60 frames per second and implied that the quality mode would have a higher resolution (while likely targeting 30 frames per second).
Fallout 4 got a batch of fresh stability and bug fixes with this re-release, too. As is the case with almost every game on current-gen consoles, I’d be shocked if the load times weren’t vastly improved, too. Another fun bonus is that the Steam version of Fallout 4 is now marked as “Verified” for .
Release times based on your time zone
The good news is that, at least in the U.S., it seems the update is already available, per X/Twitter gaming legend Wario64. That means there’s no need to set an alarm for a specific release time.
I’m sorry to report that Walton Goggins isn’t in Fallout 4, but you can at least try your luck at making him in the character creator.
