[Original story] Bethesda has released Fallout 76 patch 1.02 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC, which offers various stability and performance improvements alongside gameplay improvements.
Fallout 76’s latest update for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One basically lets you re-download and reinstall the entire game once again as the update itself is larger than the download size of the main game upon release. The game's previous update for consoles, patch 1.01, also required players to download the entire game once again.
The new patch for PC is somewhat smaller and clocks in at roughly 15GB. Bethesda recently detailed its updates schedule for the game, and already said that today's update would be rather large.
"The next update will focus primarily on game performance and stability on all platforms but will also come with a list of fixes to quests, UI, C.A.M.P.s, and more", Bethesda wrote. "Patch notes will be available early next week. This update will be large compared to what we expect for patches going forward. Regular updates will always vary in size, but future updates should be much smaller in comparison."
We’ll update as soon as Bethesda releases the official patch notes for this new update.
Fallout 76 is available now for PC and consoles.
