Aside from being able to enjoyFallout 4on current hardware, the update comes with improved visuals and resolutions, 60fps, and general bug fixes. For whatever reason, this initially didn’t apply to anyone who has access toFallout 4via PS Plus’ game catalog, sparking assumptions that you had to buy the game itself to receive the update.
To download the update, go to the Game Library on the PS5 home screen. As long as you’ve downloadedFallout 4from the Game Catalog in the PS Plus menu, you should find the game in the Your Collection section. SelectFallout 4, open the drop-down menu by selecting the three little dots, and pick the standard edition of the game.
This is the bit that’s a little confusing since it will then list two options, both labeled as “Game.” You want to pick the second “Game,” which should bring up the option to add the PS5 version ofFallout 4to your library for free.
