Fallout 4 outages and problems
In the past 24 hours, 1 user report came in for Fallout 4. Counting only the 15-minute windows with a spike big enough to count as an outage, that comes to 100.00% uptime for the day.
The busiest 15-minute window had 1 report, about 6 hours ago. That stays below our outage threshold, so it doesn't count as downtime.

How to fix Fallout 4 not working
Fallout 4 is up on our end, so if it won't work for you, the problem is most likely on your side. Work through these in order:
Your browser tries to reach fallout.bethesda.net over your own connection, right now. Nothing is sent to us or stored.
Check Bethesda.net and your platform's status
Open status.bethesda.net, then the status page for Steam, PlayStation Network or Xbox if you play there. If either shows an outage, online features come back on their own once it's fixed.
Launch once without mods
Disable your mods in your mod manager or the Creations menu and start the game. If it runs, turn mods back on a few at a time to find the one that broke after the last update.
Verify the game files on Steam
In Steam, right-click Fallout 4, open Properties, then Installed Files and choose Verify integrity of game files. Missing or damaged files are a common cause of crashes at launch.
Sign in to Bethesda.net again
If the Creations menu or Creation Club content won't load, sign out of your Bethesda.net account from the main menu and sign back in. A stale sign-in causes many of these errors.
Common Fallout 4 error messages
What each message means and what to try. The wording can differ a little between app versions.
-
This save relies on content that is no longer present. Some objects may no longer be available. Continue loading?
- Means
- The save file lists a mod or add-on that the game does not have loaded at the moment.
- Fix
- Put the missing mod or add-on back and load the save again. If you meant to drop it, you can continue, but anything tied to that content will vanish from the world.
While Fallout 4 is down: what to use instead
- Bethesda.net Check the official Bethesda status page for service notices if Fallout 4 cannot connect to online features or linked services.
- Fallout 4 Offline Play If you already have the game installed and your platform supports offline play, load a local save and continue exploring the Commonwealth without online services.
- Steam If you play on PC through Steam, check your game library and local files to see if you can launch the installed game without connecting to community services.
- Bethesda Help Centre Use the Bethesda help centre for troubleshooting steps if the game will not launch, your save will not load, or a connected feature fails.
What happens when Fallout 4 goes down
Fallout 4 is Bethesda's open-world RPG from 2015, still widely played on PC, PlayStation and Xbox and refreshed in 2024 with a next-gen update. The story campaign runs offline, so most outages involve its online parts: Bethesda.net sign-in, the Creations menu for mods, or the network of the platform you play on.
When Bethesda's services have trouble, the Creations menu fails to load, Bethesda.net sign-in times out and downloaded Creation Club content may not appear. On consoles, a PlayStation Network or Xbox network outage can stop the game from launching or saves from syncing. Crashes right after an update usually come from mods that haven't been updated yet rather than from any server.

How we track Fallout 4
The status on this page comes from user-submitted problem reports for Fallout 4, counted in 15-minute windows over the last 24 hours. Each window is compared with the normal level for Fallout 4, so a few complaints on a quiet day don't trigger anything, but a sudden jump well above normal does.
When reports climb well above normal, the status here changes to partial outage or major outage and the chart moves with it. This is separate from Fallout 4's official status page: user reports tend to show a problem early, while the official page confirms the cause. If the two disagree, check both.
