[QUOTE="Admin, post: 63081, member: 1"] Those who have [URL='https://www.ign.com/games/fallout-4']Fallout 4[/URL] via PlayStation Plus do not appear to be able to download the next-gen update for free. Reports indicate that the Fallout 4 next-gen update ([URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/fallout-4-next-gen-update-rolling-out-now']check out the patch notes here[/URL]) is free only to those who own the post-apocalyptic adventure outright, as opposed to via the PS Plus subscription service. It is unclear if this is intentional or a bug. IGN has asked Bethesda for comment. This does not appear to be the case on Xbox Game Pass, where the native Xbox Series X and S version of Fallout 4 is available to subscribers. Fallout developer Bethesda, via its parent company ZeniMax, is owned by Xbox maker Microsoft. IGN has verified that PS Plus subscribers will see the PlayStation 4 version of Fallout 4 receive a big update (the last-gen versions of the game are updated today, too, with new content and some bug fixes), there appears to be no way to access the native PS5 version without buying it at the time of this article's publication. A Bethesda rep [URL='https://discord.com/channels/784542837596225567/784546537257959435/1233066515063111771']posted on the company's Discord[/URL] to address the confusion, saying: "PS5 Upgrade should be available for you if you OWN Fallout 4 on the PSN account. Still looking into this for the PS+ users!" PS Plus subscribers have expressed disappointment over the situation, and are criticizing Bethesda for not flagging this problem ahead of the much-anticipated launch of the Fallout 4 next-gen update. The next-gen update includes native applications for the consoles, Performance mode and Quality mode settings, as well as stability improvements and fixes. This means the game will be playable up to 60 frames per second and with an increased resolution. Elsewhere, Fallout 4 on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One also gets a free update with stability improvements, and login and quest fixes. And finally, a free Fallout 4 update for PC adds widescreen and ultra-widescreen support, as well as fixes to Creation Kit and a variety of quest updates. Players with PC versions of Fallout 4 on Steam, the Microsoft Store, and GOG will receive stability, mod, and bug fixes. Fallout 4 will also be sold on the Epic Games Store, and will be Steam Deck verified. [I]Wesley is the UK News Editor for IGN. Find him on Twitter at @wyp100.
