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.

Simundo9d ago (Edited 9d 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.

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 👍

SimpleDad9d ago (Edited 9d 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.

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 aren't going to give more. We are talking about a company that has rereleased an 13 year old game at least 5 times.

Fallout 4 from PlayStation Plus Essentials Can Be Upgraded for Free

After fears the free upgrade would be limited to the PlayStation Plus Extra/Premium version, and Bethesda Softworks removing mention of the upgrade being free for all, it turns out PlayStation Plus Essential owners can get the upgrade for free. - IS

Super happy to see this was eventually resolved for PlayStation Plus Essential owners as well!

Bethesda addressed this the other day. There was no fear... just impatience.

P_Bomb4d ago

Expecting something to work at launch is impatience?

TheJacksofAll3d ago

No that’s called entitlement

admiralvic4d ago

They said they were looking into it, followed by only giving news about Extra, and then editing out the “free for all” message. You don’t think all of this wouldn’t give some reasonable doubt?

More than a few people bought a copy of this game during this time. So, it worked out as planned.
