Bethesda recently announced that its beta release of the most recent Fallout 4 patch reached all Steam players, and is heading to Xbox and PlayStation 4, as well.
Looking at previous releases, the patch 1.4 should arrive on the two consoles until the end of the week.
Not only does the patch 1.4 bring DLC support, but it also offers a whole new range of artsy customization for the Workshop crafting system. What's more, it puts an end to over 24 bugs, some of which were really annoying. For example, players encountered an issue involving screen effects that remained on the screen after using a scoped rifle. Thanks to patch 1.4, that is bygones.
Remember that "Kremvh's Tooth" quest item that spawned at the wrong place and at the wrong time? Or that time when you sprinted in third-person while carrying a minigun and things started to look and feel as if you drank too much radioactive water? Those issues also got resolved via the latest Fallout 4 patch.
Fallout 4’s 1.4 update is now live and public on Steam. When we have more info on the console update, we will share info.
