Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition contents and how to upgrade
It’s hard to believe it has been ten years since Fallout 4 stormed onto the scene. To celebrate this major milestone, Bethesda has released a Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition that bundles existing content with fresh Creation Club additions.
We have rounded up all the Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition details, so you know what’s included in this version of the game, along with the price of the bundle and each item.
The legacy of Fallout 4
In Fallout 4, you are the sole survivor of Vault 111, learning to navigate an open world destroyed by nuclear war. Create your own unique character and survive the wasteland your way, forming alliances or going at it alone, crafting, exploring hundreds of locations, and immersing yourself in an emotive narrative. The game has grown over the years with the release of various Fallout 4 DLC content and updates.
The Fallout series as a whole is regarded as having some of the best entries in the RPG genre. Fallout 4 in particular boasts being the winner of over 200 ‘Best Of’ honors, including the DICE and BAFTA Game of the Year, so the launch of a Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition upgrade is hardly surprising. The future is bright for the Fallout franchise: it has grown into a successful TV series that is about to release a second season, and Fallout 5 has been “greenlit”, though it is likely many years away.
Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition contents
The Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition includes the base game, all major DLCs, and over 150 pieces of Creation Club content. The Fallout 4 DLC that’s part of the Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition is the Far Harbor, Automatron, and Nuka-World story expansions, along with the Contraptions Workshop, Vault-Tec Workshop, and Wasteland Workshop.
If you already own the Standard Edition of Fallout 4, you can get the separate Anniversary Edition Upgrade to receive the six expansions and over 150 Creation Club items. Similarly, if you own the Fallout 4: Game of the Year Edition and want to get your hands on the Creation Club content, you can purchase the Creations Bundle separately.
Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition Creation Club contents
Creation Club refers to mod content that is supported and made by Bethesda in collaboration with the community for Skyrim and Fallout 4. The Fallout 4 Creation Club content in the Anniversary Edition features all kinds of goodies, from paint jobs to quests, new companions, and so much more. A handful of Creation Club items will be added to the game for the very first time with the Fallout 4 Anniversary Edition and Creations bundle.
