The hotly anticipated next-gen update for Fallout 4 is delayed to an unannounced release date in 2024, Bethesda has announced.
Confirmation comes from the Fallout X/Twitter account, which thanked fans for their patience.
“Thank you for your patience with us as we work on the Fallout 4 next-gen update,” the posts reads. “We know you're excited, and so are we! But we need a bit more time and look forward to an exciting return to the Commonwealth in 2024.”
Bethesda announced the Fallout 4 next-gen update in 2022 with a release set for some point in 2023. Given there are only a few weeks left of this year, its delay to 2024 was expected.
The update, set for PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X and S, includes a performance mode that allows for higher framerates, a quality mode for 4K graphics, plus bug fixes and more Creation Club content (Bethesda's official mod support).
Bethesda's post-apocalyptic open-world role-playing game first launched in 2015 for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC. "An outstanding world, great crafting system, strong story and characters and more earn Fallout 4 a glowing endorsement," we wrote in our review.
While the next mainline Fallout game is years away, the creators of the Prime Video Fallout TV show have said they envision it as a 'Fallout 5'.
In a 2022 interview with IGN, Bethesda chief Todd Howard said Fallout 5 would be Bethesda Game Studios' next game after The Elder Scrolls 6, but he more recently clarified that comment, saying in June: “it [Fallout 5] will clearly be after Elder Scrolls 6 at some point... At some point in the future.”
In the meantime, Bethesda operates online-focused Fallout game Fallout 76, which continues to receive meaningful updates.
