Here’s what’s different in Fallout 4’s new Steam patch

Fallout 4’s dirty world of ruin and nuclear debris just got a little cleaner.

Publisher Bethesda released a new patch for the role-playing game today on Steam, and it provides new features and fixes old bugs. Patches like these are important for big games like Fallout 4, and we mean big more than one way. Open-world experiences often have a lot of bugs due to the complexities and sizes of their worlds, so it takes a serious effort (even well after launch) to get them running smoothly. Also, with a game as successful as Fallout 4, it’s important for a developer and publisher to show customers that it’s continuing to support the product.
