Bethesda Game Studios has confirmed that Fallout 4’s Creations Menu Update will officially go live on November 10, coinciding with the release of the Fallout 4 Anniversary Edition. This major update introduces a brand-new Creations Menu, offering players an integrated way to browse, download, and manage community and developer-created content directly within the game. As part of the preparation for this launch, Fallout 4 mods and the Creation Club will undergo scheduled maintenance from November 6 to November 10, during which users will be unable to upload or download new mods. However, load orders can still be managed, and offline play remains unaffected during this period.
Bethesda has also advised players to disable any mods that modify the main menu prior to the update, as such modifications may become incompatible with the revised interface. The update also lays the technical groundwork for expanded storage options and future content accessibility. Once the maintenance concludes, players will experience a smoother and more stable version of Fallout 4, enhanced for modern displays and improved performance across all platforms.

Fallout 4 remains one of Bethesda Game Studios’ most ambitious open-world RPGs, casting players as the Sole Survivor of Vault 111 exploring the post-apocalyptic ruins of Boston, also known as the Commonwealth. Known for its expansive world, in-depth crafting and settlement-building systems, and dynamic combat enhanced by the V.A.T.S. system, Fallout 4 continues to evolve with ongoing updates and mod support.
The Fallout 4 Anniversary Edition and Creations Menu Update will both arrive on November 10, 2025, marking a significant milestone in the game’s post-launch support and its ongoing modding legacy.
