ORIGINAL STORY 16/11/2016 8.26pm: Fallout 4 will receive mod support on PS4 this week, Bethesda has announced.
If it's anything like Skyrim, the size limit for mods on Sony's console will be 1GB. The last time Bethesda addressed the matter revolving around Fallout 4, the publisher said it would have a 900MB cap on PS4.
Furthermore, mods on PS4 can't use outside assets, so players can only create things like new dialogues, questlines and the like, as opposed to adding in such outlandish horrors as Thomas the Tank Engine.
Like Skyrim before it, the new update to Fallout 4 will also patch in PS4 Pro support, allowing for native 4K resolution.
We'll update when the patch is live.
