For a few days now, Bethesda Game Studios has published the long-awaited free Next-Gen update for Fallout 4 , which is not limited to improving some aspects of the technical sector of the game. Let’s find out what the main additions of this substantial update are.
Improves performance on PC and consoles
The main novelty of the Fallout 4 Next-Gen update lies in the game’s arrival on three new platforms. Although everyone is talking about the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series Fallout 4.
As regards the latest generation consoles, new graphics options have been introduced that allow you to play at 4K and 60 unstable frames per second or at a lower resolution with a framerate anchored at 60FPS. There is also the possibility to play in quality mode at 40FPS (only on 120Hz screens) or in 1440p at 60FPS. As for the PC version , new features have been introduced such as full support for wide and ultrawide monitors .
Fixes many bugs

We are talking about problems that blocked the progression of some quests, that corrupted saves or that caused technical errors.
