The free update for Xbox Series X and PS5 were announced a bit earlier this month, but current-gen consoles and last-gen consoles are now in line for their own updates.
These updates mean improvements to quality and overall performances. This means expanding resolutions and correcting bugs and a lot more.
Bethesda’s classic RPG, Fallout 4, is getting a major PC overhaul! This update brings long-awaited widescreen and ultra-widescreen support, Creation Kit fixes, new quests, stability improvements, mod updates, bug fixes, and even Steam Deck verification.
