Obsidian Entertainment was founded over 20 years ago and has gone on to develop some of the most popular and iconic RPGs of all time. Obsidian was acquired by Microsoft in 2018, and since then, the studio has continued to release critically-acclaimed work.
Fallout 4 PS5 upgrade comes with major downside for PlayStation fans
25.04.2024 - 17:27 / thesixthaxis.com
Bethesda has officially dropped its hotly anticipated Fallout 4 PS5 upgrade, coinciding with the recent launch of Amazon’s superb TV adaptation. Also available on Xbox Series X|S as well as PC, this beefy free update comes loaded with new features and improvements almost a decade after Fallout 4 was first released.
Topping this list is the ability to play Fallout 4 on newer home consoles at 60FPS and an increased resolution. However, some PlayStation fans have aired their disappointment after rushing to their consoles and discovering one particularly frustrating caveat. It appears that those trying to access the Fallout 4 PS5 upgrade via the complementary PS4 version available via PlayStation Plus can’t access the upgrade. Meanwhile, those who own a digital copy of Fallout 4 will see a link/button to download the game on PS5. Neither Sony or Bethesda have yet to comment on whether this issue will be fixed and when.
Aside from performance and stability updates, Bethesda will also be introducing new content. There’s a new “Echoes of the Past” quest that will explore The Enclave – the pre-war cabal that’s looking to gain a foothold in the Commonwealth – and there’s the following free new Creation Club items:
Then there’s the Makeshift Weapon Pack, which includes… unconventional weapons like a baseball launcher, a nail gun and a piggy bank, and some unseasonal new Halloween items with 38 new decorations that include witches, cauldrons, ghouls and more! Halloween in April? Why not!
Originally expected in 2023, the free upgrade is almost perfectly timed to coincide with the release of the Fallout TV show on Amazon. The big budget production has drawn plenty of plaudits already for its blend of story and action, as well as how it perfectly captures the visual style and tone of the video game series.
Tuffcub raced through the eight episode season of TV to deliver a quick verdict, saying that “Fallout joins the rather small pool of video games that have been successfully adapted in to other media. While it’s not quite up there with The Last of Us, it’s certainly much better than Paramount’s Halo television series. Fans are going to love the attention to detail, but it’s fundamentally a great story even if you don’t know your Pip Boy from your Bobblehead.”

Fallout 4's Next-Gen Update Is So Bad Fans Are Undoing Bethesda's Work
The long-awaited next-gen upgrade for launched earlier this month on PC, Xbox Series X/S, and PlayStation 5. Bethesda promised enhancements such as new Performance and Quality mode settings available across all platforms, as well as stability improvements and fixes, but upon its release, there have been complaints of texture issues, crashes, freezes, plummeting framerates, resolution glitches, and more. The issues seem to be worse on PC in general, but many PC players have found their game in an even more broken state due to the number of mods they'd installed over the years that were no longer supported.

Fallout 3's Sunlight Has Been Broken For Over 15 Years
Fallout games have never really been put together particularly well, but that's what gives them a lot of their charm. Would Fallout New Vegas really be the same game if Doc Brown's head didn't creepily spin around from time to time, or if bodies didn't clip into the ground slightly and result in a horribly malformed ragdoll of a human being? Basically, they're very buggy, which makes the fact that Fallout 3's sunlight has been secretly broken ever since launch not all that surprising.
