Another Fallout 4 Update is Coming This Month

By newsgame

Fallout 4 is gearing up to roll out another update for November, promising a variety of useful fixes to issues that have been plaguing players. Bethesda recently celebrated the 10th anniversary of Fallout 4, and while that’s definitely an important milestone worth celebrating, the post-apocalyptic RPG has been in a bit of a rut.

In honor of Fallout 4‘s anniversary, Bethesda recently released Fallout 4 Anniversary Edition. Both the new edition and original version of Fallout 4 allow players to access Bethesda’s Creation system, but unfortunately, the 10th anniversary offerings have caused headaches for many players. Issues with crashes and broken mods have ignited a flood of criticism from the Fallout 4 community, but more fixes are on the way.

Fallout: New Vegas Remaster Casually Confirmed By Insider

A reputable gaming insider confirms the much-anticipated Fallout: New Vegas remaster is happening after all with surprisingly minimal fanfare.

The patch notes revealed by Bethesda cover a variety of updates that are expected to fix crashing and stability issues, problems with loading and saving content, and make improvements to UI, particularly with Creations. The release date for the patch wasn’t specified, but it’s expected to arrive in the next few days, as Bethesda recently mentioned that it would be ready by the week of November 24. While this patch aims to solve some of the game’s problems, there is still more work to be done, as Bethesda also revealed last week that there is an update roadmap for Fallout 4 Anniversary Edition.

In the announcement, Bethesda also confirmed that more information regarding the next patch would arrive sometime in December. The problems that have arisen since Fallout 4‘s 10th anniversary have been quite significant, and one of the biggest issues has been with the Fallout 4 Anniversary Edition specifically. Many who purchased this version of the game were met with a bug that caused the game to not recognize some Fallout 4 Anniversary Edition content as being “owned” by the player, making it impossible to access.

It’s been a controversial few weeks for Fallout 4, and while these fixes are promising, many fans remain frustrated at how the anniversary was handled. This isn’t the only time that the post-apocalyptic adventure has ignited controversy, either. Just last year, Fallout 4‘s next-gen update broke a variety of mods, which did not sit well with the community. The upcoming November and December patches will hopefully do the trick and get the game back to where it was, but only time will tell.
