How We Got Here

November 10, 2015

Fallout 4 launched on PC, PS4, and Xbox One. The Creation Club — predecessor to the current Creations system — introduced later with tight console storage caps of 1–2 GB.

April 25, 2024

The next-gen update arrived for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S, adding 60fps performance mode and 4K quality mode. Console storage limits for Creations remained unchanged at this point.

November 10, 2025

Fallout 4: Anniversary Edition released. The Creations system and Verified Creator Program replaced the old Creation Club. Bethesda announced the storage expansion for consoles — but technical issues delayed delivery.

May 20, 2026

Bethesda posted on social media confirming the Creations storage expansion would arrive on May 27 for all four console platforms, roughly six months after the original target window.

May 27, 2026 — Patch 1.000.008

Select Load Order from within the Creations menu to see your full list of installed Creations.
