Fallout 76 Goes Native on PS5 and Xbox With 60fps, 4K, and VRR

Fallout 76's Slasher update (Patch 70) arrived September 15 with the game's long-awaited native current-gen versions. It targets 60fps across current-gen consoles, with 4K on Xbox Series X and PS5 Pro, up to 1440p on the base PS5, and VRR (variable refresh rate, which syncs the display to the game's frame rate to reduce stutter) on compatible screens. The update also adds a new Slasher season and questline, fresh Atomic Shop items, and starts rotating older seasons back in alongside the current one.
