Bethesda Delays Fallout 4 Update for PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S
Vault-Tec Takes Its Sweet Time Fallout 4's PS5 and Xbox Series X|S Update Pushed to 2024
Fallout 4′ PS5 and Xbox Series X|S update delayed to 2024.
Hey there, Vault Dwellers! We’ve got news for you that might make your pip-boy light up with disappointment. Bethesda has just announced that the highly-anticipated update for Fallout 4 on the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S won’t be arriving until 2024. Cue the sound of our collective groans.
In a social media post, the official Fallout account expressed their gratitude to fans for their patience. Apparently, they need a bit more time to fine-tune the update and ensure a truly mind-blowing return to the Commonwealth. We can almost hear them whispering, “War. War never changes…but our release dates sure do.”
Now, let’s rewind a bit. The update was first unleashed in all its glory back in October 2022 (before time-traveling cyborgs became a thing). Bethesda then promised players a range of exciting new options. You’ll have the power to choose between a performance mode, making your game run smoother than a Nuka-Cola down your throat, or a quality mode that prioritizes eye-popping 4K visuals. Choices, choices!
But wait! There’s more! The update, which is absolutely free, will also come packed with bug fixes and additional Creation Club content. This is your chance to experience the wasteland on a whole new level – yes, even higher than the Super Mutant Suiciders.
Fallout 4 itself, the original game that stole our hearts and countless hours of our lives, dropped back in 2015. It was a critical and commercial success, spawning multiple expansions that kept us glued to our screens like irradiated gum stuck to a Brotherhood of Steel boot. Then came Fallout 76 in 2018, raining on our parade with its always-online nature. It wasn’t the nuclear blast we were hoping for, but hey, it’s evolved over time and reached over 15 million players now.

Meanwhile, Bethesda is keeping busy with not one, but two more Fallout projects. Fallout 5 is in the works (insert fanboy squeal here), but we’ll have to wait until after The Elder Scrolls 6 to get a taste. In the meantime, their latest game, Starfield, launched in September and has already sucked in over 12 million souls. Looks like Bethesda is aiming for a stellar win here – and Microsoft Gaming CEO Phil Spencer hopes it can enjoy a lengthy life, much like Skyrim did. Fus Ro Dah, anyone?
Now, before we wrap up, let’s not forget the biggest game releases of December 2023. We’re talking about a lineup that will make your power armor feel snug, so hold onto your helmets! We’ve got Batman: Arkham Trilogy, Dragon Quest Monsters (because who doesn’t love adorable monsters?), Steamworld Build, Born of Bread 2 (carb-loaded gaming, anyone?), Disney Dreamlight Valley, and Kingpin Reloaded. It’s a smorgasbord of gaming goodness, and you can find out even more by clicking here.
Alright, fellow gamers, that’s all we’ve got for now. So grab your controllers, stock up on Rad-X, and get ready for some serious gaming adventures. And remember, even if the wasteland may change, our love for games will always stay strong. Happy gaming, my friends!
