Fallout 4, an iconic video game released in 2015, has recently seen a surge in popularity due to the Amazon Prime Video TV show based on the franchise. To add to the excitement, Bethesda Game Studios has just rolled out a next-gen update for the game, focusing on enhanced visuals for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
One of the key highlights of this update is the improved frame rate, as demonstrated in a comparison video by GameSpot. The difference in visuals before and after the update, particularly in Quality Mode, is quite striking. In addition to Quality Mode, there is also a Performance Mode available for players to choose from.
Aside from visual upgrades, the Fallout 4 next-gen update introduces new Creation Club content, including a new quest called Echoes of the Past that delves into the Enclave faction in Massachusetts.
However, there have been issues reported for PS5 players who previously acquired the game through the PS Plus Collection, with the update causing bugs. Bethesda has addressed this by stating that the update will be accessible to PlayStation Plus Extra members through the PlayStation Game Catalog.
For those eager to dive back into the wasteland, exploring new quests and updated visuals, the Fallout 4 next-gen update promises an exciting return to the post-apocalyptic world.
