Fallout 76 Update 1.000.003 Released as First PS5, Xbox Series Patch
In September, Bethesda finally released a native version of Fallout 76 for the PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.
While there are still a fair number of bugs that need to be squashed, Bethesda is prioritizing the game experience on these new versions first, and that’s where today’s patch comes in. Players will see Fallout 76 update 1.00.003 available for download today, and this is primarily for the PS5 and Xbox Series X|S.
Read on for the issues fixed, as well as the persistent bugs that will be resolved at a later date (hopefully).
Fallout 76 on PS5, Xbox Series X|S Updated to Version 1.000.003
Today’s changelog includes the following fixes:
- Fixed various scenarios that were the leading cause of crashing on PlayStation and XBOX platforms.
- Fixed an issue with the Head Hunter Scythe, Cauterizer, and Drill Fist unique weapons where their unique appearance was incorrectly applied.
- Addressed a networking issue that caused XBOX players to experience more instances of lag, disconnects, and slow looting.
- Various other stability improvements.
Some of the issues that are still not fixed includes:
- The jet pack glitch won’t be fixed in this update, though Bethesda is aware of the issue.
- Atom Shop outfits that can’t be crafted won’t be fixed, but it is part of an upcoming update per Bethesda.
- Some unique weapon skins cannot be equipped when earned will be fixed in today’s patch, though not all.

Bethesda’s Community Manager mentioned that today’s patch is to fix the overall game stability after the launch of the Xbox Series X|S and PS5 versions that were released last month. The upside is, there is a bigger October update set to be released, and that should fix a lot of issues.
