After
nearly
a
year
and
a
half,
the
free
“next-gen”
update
for
Fallout
4
is
finally
being
released
on
April
25.

The
update
was
initially
revealed
in
October
2022
as
part
of
the
25th
anniversary
celebration
for
the
original
Fallout.
The
launch
was
slated
for
2023
but
after
never
appearing
it
was
pushed
back
until
2024,
with
many
people
speculating
that
it
was
deliberately
pushed
back
so
that
it
could
be
launched
alongside
the
new
Fallout
show
on
Amazon
Prime
Video.

The
update
is
intended
to
improve
the
base
game
in
several
ways,
including
bringing
the
game
to
Xbox
Series
S/X
and
PS5
natively.
Performance
and
Quality
modes
are
highlighted
by
Bethesda,
enabling
up
to
60fps
at
increased
resolutions.
It’s
unclear
what
each
mode
will
offer
just
yet.
Presumably,
60fps
will
be
locked
to
the
Performance
mode,
although
it
would
be
nice
to
think
that
a
nearly
decade-old
game
would
be
able
to
get
60fps
and
graphical
upgrades
without
having
to
sacrifice
one
or
the
other.

PS4
and
Xbox
One
owners
won’t
get
left
out,
either
–
a
bunch
of
stability
improvements,
login
and
quest
fixes
are
included
in
the
update
for
everyone.

PC
players
are
getting
their
own
version
of
the
update,
including
support
for
widescreen
and
ultra-widescreen.
Fallout
4
will
also
be
available
on
the
Epic
Games
Store,
and
will
be
Steam
Deck
Verified.

Whatever
platform
you
play
Fallout
4
on,
you’ll
also
get
a
fun
selection
of
new
content.
Here’s
the
breakdown

of
Bethesda:
