Fallout 4 Upcoming Hotfixes and Creation Storage Increase

347 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

508 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

Not sure if I’m the only one, but I always try to completely hide the object in the loading screen but there is always a little bit showing. Finally got it completely off screen. Stupid, I know, but I’m excited.

I occasionally see these little freaks online and every time I’m baffled by how bad they look😭. Genuinely how did they put these out?? I’m a huge Danse fan and grateful for every piece of merch I can get of him but god damn these guys are ugly. I would absolutely not get any other one from the line, and I don’t even know if I want this Danse figures ugly ass on my shelf😭😭

Discussion Fun facts about the game?

During the very start of the game, if you attempt to run for the bridge and escape sanctuary, you will be killed by the nuclear bomb. Anyone else have any random facts about the game?

Discussion Who’s your favorite non-companion NPC?

36 Upvotes

Not recruitables, but NPCs like vendors, quest-givers or randoms!

Mine is Trashcan Carla. She’s always visiting Sanctuary Hills, always telling me to keep my shirt on, and always high as a kite! Also she’s a convenient traveling vendor when your starting to focus on base-building and is usually standing super close to the Sanctuary workshop so you can unload your loot and pick up some valuable shipments of supplies.

*honorable mention to Whitechapel Charlie in Goodneighbor and my boy Zeke.

Discussion What is the funniest glitch you've ever encountered in this game?

34 Upvotes

I'll start with my 2 favorites from my playthroughs:

  1. I've had a consistent glitch for months now where every time I enter an occupied building, it plays someone inside that building saying one of their lines when taking damage, even though they don't actually take any. It's so, SO funny when there's a serious emotional moment, I walk into a room, and somebody just screams "I'M HIT!!!!" for no reason. I never want to fix this one.

  2. I'm not sure if this is even technically considered a glitch, but it was really funny. Just yesterday, I was near the end of the Railroad questline, and I got to the part where the Brotherhood Vertibird comes to fight you on the roof of the police station. On its way to us, the Vertibird got in a fight with some enemies on the ground, and I guess it lost the fight, because it lost all of its health and crashed without me having to fire a single shot at it. It was amazing

Blake Abernathy wake up

21 Upvotes

I have been playing the game since the get-go. I can't even estimate the number of times I have turned in a quest to Blake Abernathy. Half the time at night where I have to wake him just like right now.

This time. He jumped up, pulled his weapon, and said, "You mess with one of us, you kess with all of us!" Then kimd of realizes it is me and puts his weapon down and goes back to usual.

Has this ever happened to anyone else? It actually made it seem more immersive, but I think it was a fluke.

I checked all around for enemies too. Nothing in any direction.

One of my dogs at Sanctuary ate a fly mid air. My two month old puppy just got stung in the face by a bee an hour ago, it reminded me of a vid I recorded earlier this year. She’ll learn sky raisins are spicy.

It was in the nineties yesterday, in the sixties today, caught the bees off guard and one was crawling around on the ground. Dog thinks everything is eatable.

Question How's Your End-Game Loop? Met Fred O'Connell... Got two more Brown Helmets and collected a few more Legendaries

3 Upvotes

So like, do you bother exploring or, re-exploring with each character you make, build up all or just some of the settlements of any or only play up to a point before resetting(challenge/speed runs)? 3.6k hours in and I usually get interested in another game for awhile and coming back to an old save is like a stranger. So I restart every time 😂😅 Maybe challenge myself to re-conceptualize an event or quest with the different mind set built into the build. So like with this one she's vicious but giving. Like she will donate, help out some losers, charge the rich extra but get the job done like a seasoned pro, but she will also kill for a dress or some glass. As a result Strong is high key the best companion ever and I'm actually running around grabbing collectables in spite of being at the point of basically zero character progress for the last 20-30 hours

Discussion What encounters/moments happened in your future playthroughs that didn't happen in the first one?

6 Upvotes

There are so many scripted scenes and encounters that don't appear in one playthrough, so you gotta do it again. For me, in my second playthrough I was doing a pacifist run, and spared Wolfgang and Simone, the drug dealers from the diner, but I intimidated them into leaving. Hours later they ended up in Goodneighbor and I had no idea who they were until I looked it up. What are yours?

Weird old savegame sort of makes the game seem new again

Post image
28 Upvotes

I play the game regularly, I don't engage in mainline quests but just go in with startup mods and try to imagine I'm a different player since I'm not the Sole Survivor. I usually quit once I have a lot of cool guns and armor and some settlements, maybe around level 50. Last night I dug into my old characters and found this savegame. It's pretty strange! Apparently I never rescued Preston and the others, and never went to Diamond City either. A lot of the map is unexplored. That trading lines convergence point you see above is at the Collegiate Administration Building, which is not a settlement; last night they all converged on the Boston Public Library, which is also not a settlement.

I'd love to learn what other players have found in their old savegames. Anything strange?

Question Fallout 4 not loading

Post image
16 Upvotes

I decided to buy and download the creations bundle but after I downloaded it, my game fails to load. It doesn’t freeze but it endlessly loads. I don’t know if the bundle clashes with other mods I have or if there’s something wrong with the bundle itself. As of right now I can’t enter my save or past saves. Also when I go to creations and go to for example the golden retriever add on, it says I have to update it. It only applies to creation add ons, other mods I do not have to update. After I did update every single one it still didn’t load and sometimes when I tried updating, my game crashed. I have no idea what else to do an Chat gpt isn’t much help 😭

So I've been looking for cricket for awhile now and I was wandering around bunker hill and found her corpse... It must've happened when the BOS and institue both attacked bunker hill at once and I just hadn't noticed, I only ever had one interaction with her and it was early game (this is my first playthru and I did it blind for awhile) I didn't know what to buy or realize the gun was so good and now she's dead, is there any other way to get the gun or is it just a loss for this playthru

Gameplay I was a little stick on the Cappy in a haystack mission and i decided to google their locations, Google did not disappoint, made me cry laugh.
