FULL STORY
======================================================================

The Fallout TV show , which is available now via Amazon Prime Video , has 
already been a massive hit, but we shouldnt forget about the role-playing 
game (RPG) series it's based on. Luckily, developer Bethesda Game Studios is 
showing Fallout 4 some love with a free update that will bring a whole host 
of improvements to players. 

Available on April 25, the update will offer a native PlayStation 5 , Xbox 
Series X , and Xbox Series S version of the game for the first time, finally 
allowing it to take full advantage of current generation hardware. This means 
new Performance and Quality mode settings, making the game playable at up to 
a smooth 60fps in higher resolutions. Each version will also benefit from 
general stability improvements and various bug fixes. 

Over on PC, you'll soon be able to enjoy widescreen and ultra-widescreen 
support. The game, which is already available via Steam, the Microsoft Store, 
and GOG, will also be coming to the Epic Games Store. Theres even good news 
for Steam Deck owners, as Fallout 4 will be Steam Deck verified at long last 
- ensuring smooth compatibility on the gaming handheld. 

Dont worry if you dont own any of the latest systems, however, as small 
improvements will be made to the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One versions of the 
game too. This includes improved stability and the fixing of some quest 
issues. 

The update also brings some free Creation Club content, like the Echoes of 
the Past quest. In addition to the new Enclave Colonel uniform, you will also 
be able to obtain Enclave Weapon Skins, Enclave Armor Skins, a Tesla Cannon, 
Hellfire Power Armor, X-02 Power Armor, and a Heavy Incinerator. This is on 
top of the Makeshift Weapon Pack, which introduces a range of improvised 
weapons fashioned after everyday objects, and 38 new Halloween decorations 
for your settlement. 

Considering the fact that Fallout 4 was released almost nine years ago, its 
pretty impressive to see that its still receiving substantial free updates 
like this. If you loved the TV show but are otherwise completely new to the 
series, this update sounds like it'll be the perfect time for you to jump in.
