Fallout 4’s free next-gen update now available for PlayStation Plus Collection owners

Bethesda has said that issues preventing some PlayStation Plus subscribers from accessing Fallout 4’s next-gen update have now been resolved.

Fallout 4’s long-awaited next-gen update was released last Thursday, allowing players who own the PS4 and Xbox One versions of the game to upgrade to PS5 and Xbox Series X/S versions for free.

However, players who redeemed the PS4 game when it was previously available as a PlayStation Plus title soon discovered that there was no option to upgrade it.

“Thanks for letting us know that some PS Plus subscribers have been unable to access the free next gen update of Fallout 4 on PlayStation,” Bethesda said today.

“This issue has now been successfully resolved. Subscribers who have previously received Fallout 4 from the PlayStation Plus Collection should now be able to access the update as intended.”

Fallout director Todd Howard said this week that Bethesda isn’t ruling out partnering with external developers on future games as it looks to find solutions to increase its output.

Amazon also said on Monday that its Fallout TV show attracted 65 million viewers in its first 16 days, making it the second most-watched show on its streaming platform behind The Lord of the Rings: The Ring of Power, according to Variety.
