Fallout 4 next gen console, PC update is now available

With the Prime Video Fallout series being quite a solid hit (our review here), Bethesda Game Studios coincidentally announced they would be finally releasing a next generation console and PC update for Fallout 4 to help smooth out the several year old game experience for fans and new players.  The update will be free for owners of Fallout 4 on each respective platform and will include Performance mode and Quality mode settings, increased resolutions, better framerates and the always useful stability improvements.

There are also some pretty extensive patch notes for those who love that kind of thing, right here.  See some screens and info from Bethesda below.
