Bethesda has announced that the new 1.5 update for Fallout 4 is now live on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

Fallout 4‘s 1.5 update arrived on PC last week, and now Bethesda has announced that the update has made its way to consoles, bringing with it the addition of Survival mode – no fast traveling, no quicksaving, more damage, harder to find items, and more. In addition, the update adds support for the upcoming Far Harbor expansion, which is scheduled to launch on May 19.
