While there is a precedent for user-made content in console games like Little Big Planet and Super Mario Maker, this was never the case with mods in AAA games like the kind Bethesda produces, in spite of the vast communities centered around modding Skyrim and previous Fallout titles. The reaction was surprise and elation on the behalf of the creative minds who have been modding games for years without much acknowledgement from the developers. On top of paid DLC, Fallout 4 players will get free updates on a regular basis.Back when Fallout 4 was the centerpiece of the Bethesda E3 2015 show, Todd Howard promised console gamers that they would also have access to mods, in just the same way as PC gamers would. Fallout 4's DLC will be available through the game's $30 DLC pass. The Fallout 4 release date has been set for November 10 across PC, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4.īethesda has also announced that Fallout 4 will be getting expansion packs starting in 2016. But the timetable is kind of fuzzy right now. "There's a lot of back-end things we need to do, and once that's done the plan is to talk with Sony and get them on board. "Once we get the creation kit out on PC, it's then going to come to Xbox One," Howard added.Īt E3 in June, Bethesda revealed that Fallout 4's mods would ship on Xbox One before PlayStation 4, as part of a wider deal arranged with Microsoft. What is more likely, and has been previously understood, is that the console versions will be able to play modified PC code.
Such is the complex nature of creating mods, it is likely that Howard is not suggesting here that the Xbox One and PlayStation 4 versions of Fallout 4 will give users creative mod controls. You'll have all the PC mods, but what's really exciting is we are finally bringing it to console." He explained: "We're doing it on the PC in a similar manner to what we did with Skyrim.
