When Bethesda finally released its “next-gen” upgrade for 2015 game Fallout 4, fans weren’t happy after the update was found to be breaking mods, causing glitches, and in some cases providing worse-quality graphics than the pre-update experience. Now, a new update has been released to fix the previous one, patching up some bugs and giving players more options for their next-gen Fallout 4 experience.
The new update, first and foremost, gives more flexibility for players on Xbox Series X|S and PlayStation 5 when it comes to selecting graphics options. “We highly recommend you run with the default settings but now you can change your options to better fit your playstyle and display,” the patch notes read.

Now Playing: Fallout 4 Next Gen Update Comparison
The settings will now allow players to choose a frame-rate target no matter what mode they’re in, selecting between 30fps, 60fps, or 40fps if their display supports 120hz. The game will try to maintain that frame-rate target whether players choose Visuals or Performance mode for graphics, though Bethesda strongly recommends selecting Performance mode for a target of 60fps. “Both modes may adjust internal resolution dynamically when scenes or action get heavier,” the patch notes warn.
A number of bug fixes are shipping with the patch, including a fix for some UI issues in the PC’s new ultrawide mode, Auto HDR being re-enabled on Xbox, and fixes to bugs that were causing crashes on some platforms. Some bugs still remain, however, and the update may have re-broken mods that were patched since the previous update.
The full patch notes can be found below:
