Which platforms support Fallout 4 mods?

Xbox One and Playstation 4 owners have not been able to mod the console version of the 2015 game. If you play on the console, we now have good news for you. Because now the modifications are available for all platforms and the installation is even quite simple.

Again, we have good news for all mod fans and those who want to become one. You don't need a mod manager, nor do you have to customize files, as you did shortly after the release of the apocalyptic role-playing game in 2015.

The best mods for Fallout 4 on PC

Below you will find the best mods for Bethesda's Fallout 4 in the PC version. This is where modding was possible the earliest, which is why you'll find the most content for PC:

Horizon: Enemies in the wasteland are no longer tied to the player level. Thus, deathclaws and other powerful enemies are much harder to defeat. With the Fallout 4 mod Horizon, you'll also gain respect in the endgame, with a high level, on your wasteland forays. You will also find less ammunition and medical supplies. In addition, diseases are more difficult to heal and you can only heal yourself to a limited extent in battle.
Full Dialog Interface: With this mod, you will see the complete answer options in the dialogs. This is done in the Fallout-typical list form. The mod is the right choice for players who want clearer dialogs and place special emphasis on the consequences of their answer choices.

Armorsmith Extended allows you to craft your own armor at a new workbench. In addition, the modification brings many improvements to the armor and clothing system in . This allows you to freely combine all, normally incompatible, pieces of equipment. In addition, you will automatically have all existing recipes in your inventory.
Lowered Weapons is a simple mod that makes you lower your weapon automatically, even in the first-person perspective. Consequently, you'll have a clear view of what's important.
Enhanced Blood Textures, replaces the original blood textures of the Bethesda classic with more beautiful variants. This also applies to the blood splatters on the camera.
Imroved Map with Visible Roads lets you see roads and coastlines in great detail on the Fallout 4 map. This makes it easier for you to find your way in the wasteland.

True Storms is a Fallout 4 mod that completely overhauls the weather system. New sounds and weather effects, the intensity of which you can set during installation, improve the atmosphere of the Bethesda classic enormously.
Survival Options gives you a variety of options to customize the survival mode to your liking. For example, you can edit the saving, hunger, thirst, combat system and much more, freely according to your ideas.
Vivid Fallout gives you a complete visual refresh of the post-apocalyptic role-playing game. The vision will be sharper and the shadows more beautiful. At the same time, your graphics card will need less memory.
Start me up: With this mod, you'll skip Fallout 4's lengthy intro and start right from the moment you wake up in Vault 111. You realize that everything was just a dream, and you decide freely at which point in the game you start in which role and with which skills. This way you can explore Fallout 4 completely and solve all side quests without having to play the main story at all.

The Bullet Time mod replaces the classic, rather ponderous V.A.T.S. mode with a first-person perspective in slow motion, which you can only use as long as you have enough action points. Perfect for anyone looking for more fluid gameplay without sacrificing the benefits of V.A.T.S.
Darker Nights also really turns the night into night in Fallout 4. So that you can no longer see your hand in front of your eyes. You can choose from seven levels of darkness.
The Eyes of Beauty originally comes from The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim and allows you to equip your Fallout character with beautiful eye textures. The data for the Fallout 4 mod comes from medical images and could hardly be sharper.
With the mod Fallout 4 Seasons you can customize the environment of Fallout 4 according to the four seasons. Through romantic winter landscapes, blooming spring or green summer. The Commonwealth suddenly looks much more beautiful and overgrown.

Backpacks of the Commonwealth and Survivalist go Bags lets you find many new backpacks in the Commonwealth. Not only do these look stylish, but they also have an extra helping of carrying capacity.
Place Everywhere and Scrap Everything are two Fallout 4 mods for settlement building. The former lets you build any object anywhere without conflicting with other objects. The second one allows you to break everything except the ground surfaces into their individual parts. Both mods make building extremely easy, but also offer visual bug potential.
Campsite contains a variety of camping items. Also, with this mod you can set up camp anywhere in the wasteland. This is especially useful for the survival mode, if you don't want to constantly try to find a safe camp within the settlements.

New backpacks and camping gear for Fallout 4 fans

A Bundle of Tape adds a variety of weapons with high-quality designs to Fallout 4. If you are craving for more rifles and pistols, this mod is a good choice for all PC gamers. You can find the new items scattered around the wasteland or from killed NPCs
The Mercenary Armor Pack adds countless high-resolution outfits and armor to Fallout 4.

The best Fallout mods for Playstation 4

Many of the featured mods for the PC version of Fallout 4 are now also available for the console versions of the epic role-playing game - and vice versa. However, since this does not apply to all Fallout 4 mods, you can find an overview of the best adaptations for Playstation 4 below.

Mad Rock, from the modder of the same name, provides you with a completely new settlement, including a full quest. A lot of surprises, shock moments and fun are on top. We recommend: definitely try it out!
Immersive optimizes the recoil of all weapons. Since the light from laser weapons doesn't move any mass, there's no recoil here either, and the associated pistols and rifles are therefore significantly upgraded. On the other hand, human characters move slower, especially when ducking or sneaking. However, you can adjust this accordingly.
Overboss 357 Magum brings the eponymous Magnum to the game, which is content with 10mm ammunition. You'll find it hidden in the wasteland a total of five times. It's the right choice if you're looking for a faithful companion for the endgame.

"Clean & Smooth" cleans all 30 settlements in Fallout 4 from trash. From now on, you will search in vain for rubble, scrap, plants and all useless objects that interfere with the construction of a new settlement. All "cleaned up" items are collected in corresponding containers, so you won't be at a disadvantage due to missing materials.
The Unofficial Fallout 4 Patch fixes over 1,000 completely different bugs that Bethesda didn't have time for. A must-have!
Military Clutter allows you to build a variety of storage options like crates, shelves, or weapon racks. This way you can store your weapons and grenades in style in any settlement. You can easily find the new items in Fallout 4's build mode.
Maple Manor Player Home is one of our favorite mods. You first have to find your way into the manor and clear out the estate. After that, you'll have plenty of rooms with all kinds of tools at your disposal. In addition, you can rebuild all the furnishings in your other settlements. At the latest when you find your motorcycle, which will take you directly to Diamond City, you won't want to miss the installation of the Fallout 4 mod.

Skillzerks Weapons Pack is one of the greatest modifications of its kind. This is because it enriches the Commonwealth with over 100 new weapons. From the laser sword to the 4-fold fatman, everything imaginable is included. At the same time, no old weapons are replaced. You can find the new equipment in crates scattered throughout Fallout or take it from defeated enemies.
With the mod Cheat Room you can finally cheat on the Playstation 4 version of Fallout 4. As the name suggests, the mod takes you to a secret cheat room. There you can find all items of the game including cheat rings, cheat weapons or new legendary weapons like the 4-fold Fatman. This means that you can now use a large number of the cheats available to PC players even without a console.

The best modifications for Fallout 4 on Xbox One

There are also a lot of Fallout 4 mods for Xbox One players. Among them, most are also available for the PC and Xbox One version of Bethesda's 2015 Game of the Year. Nevertheless, we've also compiled a list of the coolest Fallout 4 mods for Xbox One:

Sim Settlements completely reworks the building system within the settlements in the direction of Sim City. With this mod, you no longer have to place every single small item by hand. Instead, you build residential, trade, defense, industrial and leisure areas. As soon as you assign a settler, he creates everything he needs by himself and builds it up and out piece by piece. Thus, your settlement will develop steadily, while you concentrate on playing.

As with the other platforms, the Unofficial Fallout 4 Patch fixes over 1,000 bugs that developer Bethesda was unable or unwilling to address.
The Teleport to Campanion mod finally makes it possible for you to teleport directly to the location of all companions. Because in the original version of Fallout 4, they quickly disappeared forever if you didn't remember where you left them.
Atomic Radio is a new radio station for Fallout 4, with countless hours of fresh entertainment from over 65 artists. The many music tracks, radio plays and commercials will make sure you never get bored again. Not for nothing was this Fallout 4 mod in the top lists of the PC version for a long time.

Full Dialogue Options is the counterpart to the Full Dialogue Interface for the PC version of Fallout 4, allowing you to have conversations as good as in the Fallout predecessors.
Modern Firearms (Gunsmith Edition): Adds a variety of cool new weapons to the game. Unfortunately, you won't find a box with all the models in Sanctuary, but will have to collect them from defeated NPCs or buy them from merchants. Still, this is one of the best modifications for the Xbox One version of Fallout 4.
Cheat Room (XB1) allows you to use cheats in Fallout 4 on Xbox One. As with the PS4 mod of the same name, you get to the secret cheat room, which contains all the items in the game. It also gives you as much XP as you want. With this Xbox One mod, you can get the coolest items even without console commands.
CatMeat mod (XB1) is a fun mod for all cat fans. All crazy cat ladies and cat gentlemen will finally find their fluffy companion. The AI is incredibly realistic, because the kitten hardly pays attention to your commands and does what it wants. Technically not a great innovation, but cute all the same.
