This is a huge release being treated like a patch update but really it’s a monster in disguise…Bethesda being Bethesda, no actual release times or pre load available or file size info, sigh. All that said, clearing space on the SSD and putting the PS5 in rest mode while at work so I can play later, fully expecting snail download speeds as millions bang on their servers.

It just popped up on the UK PSN store as a native PS5 download of 56 gigs. I had the PS4 version installed in case it just patched that but it is it's own download.

Not sure if that download includes the DLC's though which I own, think it's just the base game. At the moment there's no separate PS5 DLC download options. But might just take a bit for it to be added.

Where do you find it? The PS4 version I have installed on my PS5 just updated but it doesn't include the next gen patch as you say, it only includes mods.

Simundo679d ago (Edited 679d ago )

Yeah I had the PS4 version installed and it started downloading a 9 gig patch for that. But if you go to Fallout 4 in the store and click on the three dots next to the game you can pick the native PS5 version, which shows as free for me owning the PS4 version.

Actually I think when I went to the store I didn't have to select a version. It just said free PS5 upgrade where the price normally is.

Simundo679d ago (Edited 679d ago )

All the DLC is now there with a PS5/PS4 tag as well. I had to "repurchase that" for free too as I own the PS4 versions.

@Simundo

Brilliant cheers, found it 👍

SimpleDad679d ago (Edited 679d ago )

My store has Fallout 4 ps4/5 version for e19,99... when I click that it says that I own another version and it goes to my ps4 version.

I didn't get Ps5 free upgrade. WTF?

Edit: My bad, you have to put that into your cart, and than it says it's free.

I wouldn't get too carried away.

Xristo679d ago

Thanks for the warning... Steam launcher set to "only update on launch" and launching game through Vortex using the FO4 Script Extender.

Stay away, Bethesda.

I redownloaded on SX hopefully it's a small patch

They need to look at Morrowind and see what the progression should have been from there instead of the regression we got with the next 2 games. They weren’t horrible games but they could have been so much more.

Fallout 4 just felt too streamlined and accessible to me, the perk system was not as fun as it was in Fallout 3, not saying Fallout 3 didn't have issues but 4 just felt like a complete step back.

mastershredder115d ago

So the part where you just sold the same games for the last 10 years while you focused on 76 and merch, was not a reset from the "creative" aspect eh? How very Todd of you.

lukasmain115d ago

I bought Fallout 4 (I loved Fallout 3) at launch and I couldn't bring myself to finish it or even get close to finishing it. It was soooo damned boring and bland. I played on a very hard difficulty and I had hundreds of stimpaks. One of the only games I've played for a while and not ended up finishing it. I hated it. Just flat out hated it.
