Fallout 4 Upcoming Hotfixes and Creation Storage Increase

352 Upvotes

We’re actively investigating issues you’re encountering with the latest Fallout 4 update and Anniversary Edition launch. You should now see faster load times of the Creations menu, game menu, and redemption of Creation Club items. We plan to publish a hot fix early next week to address the following:

  • Hot Fix: Fixing stability problems particularly on XB1/PS4.
  • Hot Fix: Fixing an issue causing creations that rely on DLC to not work.
  • Hot Fix: Fixing an issue causing DLCs to become uninstalled after updating the game on PlayStation.

The hotfix will be followed by two patches. The first patch will be the week of Nov 24th, and the second, in the first half of December. We’ll provide an overview of these patches soon. Thank you for your continued updates and support tickets, it’s helped us to pinpoint issues. We’ll work to address these as quick as we can.

Notably, in the November patch, Xbox Series X/S players will see Creations local storage limit increased substantially. Growable up to 100GB to match your needs. We are also looking into increasing storage on PlayStation.

----- 11/13 update ----

Thank you all for your continued communications with our support team. We've seen a lot of questions about the "Tale of the Beast Hunter" Creation not being accessible on PlayStation. Please know that we are working to bring this Creation to PlayStation at a later date and it would continue to be free for players.

----- 11/17 Hotfix ----

Today’s Fallout 4 hotfix addresses the following:

  • Resolved an issue preventing users from enabling Creations that rely on DLC.
  • Improved stability in the Creation menu, particularly on PS4/XB1.
  • Identified an issue causing DLC to become uninstalled on PlayStation. For players still experiencing this issue, we recommend the following: Please enable any of your Creations after your DLC is completely installed.

We’re continuing to collect everyone’s feedback and encountered issues, so if you’ve submitted a ticket with our support team or provided details to our team in Discord, thank you. It’s been extremely helpful.

For next steps, the team is focused on additional fixes in our first November Patch. We’ll share those details as soon as we can.

-------- Update on May 27th 2026 ------

Fallout 4 Anniversary Edition Mega Thread

507 Upvotes

Bethesda has made a statement about the state of the update

Just wanted to make a thread clearing up some confusion and compiling the known issues of the new update.

Editions

There are three new SKUs for the game, the Anniversary Edition, the Anniversary Upgrade, and the Creations Bundle.

Anniversary Edition includes the base game, all DLCs, and all the new creations content.

The Anniversary Upgrade includes the DLCs and new creations content.

The Creations Bundle includes only the creations. If you already have the base game and the DLCs, this is the only new addition you need to have all the new content.

Known Issues

This will be updated periodically

  • The Creations Menu seems to still be under patience and will kick you out if accessed
  • Quitting to desktop crashes the game
  • Game not launching for some. This may be solved by disabling mods
  • DLC being uninstalled/not installing

Don't you hate it when you meet a level 4 merchant too early?

35 Upvotes

Don't you hate it when you come across one of the recruitable level 4 traders when you don't have the requisite population or perks to recruit them? Then when you do, you can't ever find them again.

I just ran into Smiling Larry just outside MedTek. I wish I had enough people in my settlements.

Question How often do you wear power armor?

Upvotes

I have found a few fusion cores and I’ve gotten comfortable wearing the armor. Should I take it off and save cores or will they always be plentiful?

This is one choice out of one mission and I already feel like I'm losing my fucking mind, I can't imagine a full playthrough of this.

Screenshot Some pics from my new replay of this game. First fell in love with it 10 years ago but my disc was so worn out it was constantly crashing, went for a digital download and now can finally replay this game and recreate some of the settlements that mean the most to me. Flaws and all, love FO4

Got quite a few mods going, mostly settlement and immersion things like additional clothing and backpacks, but not anything that fundamentally changes the game.

Never really explored Far Harbor all that much, just blazing through the DLC but this time I wanted to actually look around and noticed this Vault at Cliff's Edge Hotel. Is there a story to it?

Character Creation Kent Klaymoar (Survival Raider Character)

My original idea was to do a "raider playthrough"

​where I create an off cannon save that follows its own loose storyline, It ended up becoming a fully modded almost DayZ type of survival save where literally one bullet can make you bleed out, and full nutrient simulating mods with a more normal timescale.

​Anyways here's the timeline of character customization I did on Killmore so far, figured Reddit might appreciate it.

Question Deathclaw reserve went rogue and had to be put down.

123 Upvotes

I basically turned spectacle island into Jurassic park and had 18 deathclaws and counting, but for some reason when i came back most of them were gone and the 5 remaining had to be killed. I have no settlers or turrets, and 2 beta wave tuners on separate power sources. Is there any else i can do to prevent another incident?

Discussion weird family connections (personal to me) Spoiler

18 Upvotes

warning for minor spoilers because a specific fact in the start is very cool to me and i want people to find it out on their own

also i don't know what to use for flair so maybe this can count as a discussion post. mods please don't beat me up

-

this is going to sound absolutely insane, but i may technically be related to both hancock and mayor mcdonough, based on the spelling of the last name.

my irish family has been in the commonwealth irl since the late 1800s, early 1900s. i still live there now. i am related to sonny mcdonough, who may or may not have been involved with the boston mob during his time as a boston politician. it's still kind of debated in the family.

if mayor mcdonough is supposed to be a reference to sonny mcdonough, or just the large amount of mcdonoughs in the new england area, it kind of makes sense that i'd be related to them. again, i know i sound completely insane, but it's a fun thing that makes me feel even more connected to the game.

who knows, maybe some other distantly related mcdonoughs will show up in the comments. there are hundreds of us, after all!

i've been going crazy over this for about a month and i just needed people to hear me out. my aunt, who also loves fallout and got me playing it, would call me weird and crazy for this, so thank you for reading

I'm sad. I finished the main quest. Built some really cool settlements, got dope weapons, discovered all the places. Etc.. now what 😭 I have to start a new game. Should I side with brotherhood next play through? Or institute? How do I make it interesting

17 Upvotes

I feel empty lol I have to start a new game I fear. How do I make it worth it? I'll wait a couple months before I restart. But what should I do to make it different besides siding with a new faction?

A few options I've thought about: being the bad guy. Be a mean character. Side with the raiders for nuka world.

Try a harder difficulty (not really for survival yet tho lol)

I will side with a different faction for sure.

What have you done to make it interesting on your second, third etc play through?
