Gamers who downloaded the game via PS Plus were unable to download the update, with Bethesda saying it was a bug. Now the publisher is confirming that players who own the game via the PS Plus Collection will NOT be getting the update, but owners of the game through PS Plus Essentials will get it after they fix that bug.

In today's Daily Fix: Fallout 4's much-anticipated next-gen (or rather, current-gen) update went live today, and though it was touted as a free upgrade, some users won't be able to download it without handing over some bottle caps. It seems like PlayStation 4 and 5 owners who downloaded the game when it was free via PS Plus can't download the update unless they pay for the game. Bethesda did mention that the upgrade was free to those who purchased the game, either physically or digitally, and technically PS Plus subscribers didn't outright pay for their copies. However, Game Pass subscribers aren't having the same issues, but that's likely because Microsoft owns Bethesda now, and Bethesda games are just included with Game Pass subscriptions.

In today's Daily Fix: The success of Prime Video's Fallout series has not only earned it a second season, but the game franchise saw a significant bump in activity since the show debuted.

In other news, the modding team behind Fallout London is a little annoyed with Bethesda. When news dropped that Fallout 4 was getting an official current-gen update, it put the team behind Fallout London in a tough spot. The much-hyped mod may run into compatibility issues with the new update, possibly making it unplayable, and the mod team would've at least loved a heads' up from Bethesda that the update was on the way. And finally, Microsoft is rolling out a new Xbox. No, it's not a pro model, it's a Series X with a limited edition X-Men comic on the panels.
