Fallout 4 Patch Hits Xbox One and PC, Here's What It Changes and Adds

A new update is now available for Fallout 4 on Xbox One and PC.

Update 1.7 adds support for the Nuka-World expansion (which comes out on August 30), as well as an unspecified a new art type for stores in Workshop settlements. The update is coming to PlayStation 4 next week and when it arrives, players will be able to delete add-ons without performing a full uninstall.

There are also a number of fixes included with Fallout 4 1.7, including one for a problem where some dog armor would not properly equip on Dogmeat. The patch also fixes an issue where companions would unequip clothing while fast-traveling with the player.

Some fixes for Fallout 4's mods program are also included, but these only pertain to Xbox One and PC because mod support is still not available on PS4. One of the fixes is for a problem where "sneaking would turn player invisible while running with mods." There are also "minor" UI improvements to the mods and mods detail menus.

Below are the complete patch notes, as written by Bethesda.
