But you probably own the content and don't need to pay anyway?
Fallout 4 Anniversary Edition is out now, and we finally know how much it’ll cost to upgrade from your existing copy of the game: up to $60 AUD here in Australia.
It’s tricker than that though — as I own the game’s Season Pass on PS5, and therefore all its DLC expansions, I can’t actually pay that $60 AUD to upgrade, because I already own a lion’s share of what’s inside that upgrade bundle. Instead, I could opt to part with $30 AUD for the Creations Bundle, which includes 150 Creation Club items.
If you don’t care about Creation Club items — essentially mods — and you only own the Fallout 4 base game, you’re probably better off just paying for the Season Pass itself, which is priced at $52.45 AUD over on the Microsoft Store. You don’t save a bunch compared to the Anniversary Edition upgrade, but you save a bit.
Finally, if you don’t own Fallout 4 at all, you can buy the Anniversary Edition outright at $90 AUD.
Is this all confusing? Yes. Is it unnecessary? Yes. Should Bethesda have explained this better to consumers rather than the standard line of. “upgrade paths are available”? Absolutely.
Fallout 4 Anniversary Edition is out now across Windows PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series S, Xbox Series X, PS4, and PS5. It’ll heads to Switch 2 later in 2026.
